Quick pickled onions are a fantastic way to add a punch of tangy flavor to your dishes in a short amount of time. These 10 Minute pickled onions are loaded with flavor and texture and are sure to become a fridge staple!
Slice the onion into thin slices using a mandoline or sharp knife. Place in a 16 oz mason jar. Add smashed garlic, jalapeno, or peppercorns into the jar if desired.
Heat the vinegar, water, sugar, and salt in a small pot just until the sugar and salt have melted and the mixture begins to simmer. Pour the mixture onto the onions and allow to cool for 25-30 minutes. Serve immediately, or refrigerate the onions in a sealed container for up to 2 weeks.
