Adding ginger and soy sauce to caramelized onions gives a bit of zingy punch and intrigue, creating a multidimensional meal that comes together in just one skillet. Covering the onions briefly during the beginning of the cooking process helps them break down more quickly—a baking sheet will work if you don’t have a lid!
