Easiest, Cheesiest Skillet Dip Recipe

Name: Easiest, Cheesiest Skillet Dip
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 tablespoons unsalted butter; 1 large yellow onion, diced; 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus a little more for sprinkling; 1 1/2 cups enoki mushrooms (if still attached at bottom when you get them, cut that part off so you have lots of little stems); 1 1/2 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese; 1 cup grated cheddar cheese (white or orange is fine); 1 cup grated low-moisture mozzarella; 2 tablespoons sour cream, thinned a little with lime juice or water, for drizzling; 2 tablespoons spicy honey (I like Mike's Hot Honey); 2 tablespoons very finely chopped chives, plus more if desired; Hearty crackers, tortilla chips, or hunks of crusty bread for serving

Servings: persons

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large yellow onion, diced
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus a little more for sprinkling
1 1/2 cups enoki mushrooms (if still attached at bottom when you get them, cut that part off so you have lots of little stems)
1 1/2 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup grated cheddar cheese (white or orange is fine)
1 cup grated low-moisture mozzarella
2 tablespoons sour cream, thinned a little with lime juice or water, for drizzling
2 tablespoons spicy honey (I like Mike's Hot Honey)
2 tablespoons very finely chopped chives, plus more if desired
Hearty crackers, tortilla chips, or hunks of crusty bread for serving

1
Heat oven to 475u00b0F.
2
Set a 10-inch high-heat safe skillet over a medium flame. Add butter. When it has melted, add the onion and salt. Saute the onion, moving it around only every so often, until it's soft and golden brown and just beginning to caramelize in places, about 5 to 8 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and add the enoki mushrooms. Saute another minute or so until they're soft and have shrunk a bit.
3
Add the grated cheeses, and mix thoroughly with the onion and mushroom. Transfer the skillet to the oven, and bake a few minutes until cheese is bubbling. Turn on the broiler and broil for just a minute or two, until cheese is browned in spots across the top-watch closely to make sure it doesn't burn!
4
Remove from the oven. Sprinkle a pinch of salt over the cheese. Then, drizzle the top with spicy honey and sour cream. Sprinkle with chopped chives. Serve right from skillet-you may want to wrap the handle with a dish towel!-along with sturdy chips, crackers, or bread.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
