Ingredients

• 4 links Bratwurst sausages
• 4 slices Cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 large Yellow onions
• 1 teaspoon Balsamic vinegar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the onions: slice the yellow onions thinly.

Step 2

In a large non-stick frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, add the sliced onions.

Step 3

Stir the onions to coat them in the butter and oil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the onions slowly, stirring occasionally, for about 30 minutes until they are golden brown and caramelized.

Step 4

Toward the end of the caramelization process, add the balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper to the onions, mix well, and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

While the onions are caramelizing, preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 6

Add the bratwurst sausages to the grill and cook, turning occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are cooked through with an internal temperature of at least 160°F (71°C).

Step 7

During the last 5 minutes of grilling, top each bratwurst link with a slice of cheddar cheese, allowing it to melt.

Step 8

Once the bratwursts are cooked and the cheese is melted, remove them from the grill.

Step 9

To serve, place the cheese-topped brats on a plate and spoon a generous amount of caramelized onions over each.

Step 10

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your delicious Keto Cheese Brats with Caramelized Onions!
