Instructions

  1. Place onions, chili powder, salt, and lemon juice in a bowl and mix by hand to completely coat the onions.
  2. Transfer to a resealable container and gently press down onions to cover with juice.
  3. Add lid and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow pickling time.
  4. Chef's Note: To develop the most flavor and better pickling, let onions sit overnight. Use on anything from garnishing hot dogs, tacos or salads, and everything in between.
