      This and any recipe telling me to cook with extra virgin olive oil is an absolute no. You can’t caramelized onions in less than 30-40 minutes and EVOO becomes sour when heated, cook with plain old olive oil and keep the EVOO for dressings, any recipe that says otherwise should be thrown in the trash

      I use recipetineats a lot and the recipes are all great. But almost every single one says to cook the onions for 3 minutes and to cook the garlic at the same time. I’ve started to just get the ingredient list and cook/assemble it without the instructions, cuz I know how to cook and no, the chicken is not done in 7 minutes.
