Ingredients

🧅 2 medium-sized red onions, preferably organic for the best flavor
🍎 1/2 cup Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar or similar
🥥 1-2 tablespoons RANGERS Coconut Oil
🧂 1 teaspoon white salt, any brand

Instructions

1- Prepare the Onions:

• Trim and peel the red onions.
• Remove both ends and the outer skin.

2- Slice the Onions:

• Use your chef's knife to thinly slice the red onions into rings or half-rings.
• Aim for uniform thinness to ensure even marination.

3- Marinate the Onions:

• Transfer the sliced onions to a glass bowl.
• Add approximately 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar, ensuring the onions are partly submerged.
• Pour over 1-2 tablespoons of coconut oil and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt.
• Mix thoroughly to coat, then let the onions marinate for about 15-20 minutes.

4- Heat the Pan:

• Place the frying pan on the stovetop at medium heat.
• Add a small amount of the remaining coconut oil, allowing it to warm up.

5- Cook the Onions:

• Carefully add the marinated onions and their liquid to the heated pan.
• Use the tongs to distribute the onions evenly.

6- Increase Heat:

• Switch the stovetop to high heat.

7- Sauté the Onions:

• Regularly stir the onions until the vinegar has evaporated and they become tender and translucent.
• Aim for soft yet textured onions with some liquid residue.

8- Serve:

• Transfer the finished escabeche back to a serving bowl.
• It's now ready to add a zesty kick to your meal.
