This recipe is perfect, just like mama's :) We like onions so I caramelized 3 instead of two till they were dark golden brown. It came out really well. The family loved it!

I was looking through your recipes and found this. It's also my mom's recipe (and probably her mom's). Easy and good. Best on fresh, still warm Challah. I always use chicken fat, not diet friendly but its comfort food. When I make chicken I like to healthy it up by pulling the fat and skin from the bird. I don't waste it, I freeze it for the holidays to use in recipes like this one. Take care and thanks for posting.
