Ingredients
- 12 oz Egg noodles
- 4 tbsp Butter
- 2 medium Yellow onion
- 2 tsp Paprika (sweet or smoked)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp Parsley (fresh, chopped)
- 0.5 cup Sour cream (optional, for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
While the noodles cook, peel and thinly slice the yellow onions.
Step 3
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and caramelized.
Step 4
Sprinkle the paprika over the caramelized onions and stir to evenly coat them in the spice. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to toast the paprika and enhance its flavor.
Step 5
Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet with the onions and gently toss to combine. Ensure the noodles are evenly coated in the buttery, paprika mixture.
Step 6
Season the dish with salt and ground black pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Step 7
Transfer the noodles to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Step 8
Optional: Serve with a dollop of sour cream for a creamy, tangy touch.
