Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and 1/2 tsp salt, stirring to coat. Cook, stirring every 3–4 minutes, for 35–40 minutes until the onions are deep golden brown and jammy throughout — reduce the heat to medium-low if they begin to darken too quickly at the edges.
