Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 large Yellow onions
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
- 2 medium-sized Flatbreads
- 4 ounces Blue cheese
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat.
Add the sliced onions to the skillet and sprinkle with sugar and salt. Stir to coat the onions evenly.
Cook the onions for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and caramelized. Reduce the heat if they begin to brown too quickly.
Once caramelized, stir in the balsamic vinegar and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Brush the flatbreads with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil on both sides.
Grill each flatbread for 1-2 minutes per side, or until lightly charred and heated through.
Remove the flatbreads from the grill and transfer to a cutting board or serving platter.
Spread the caramelized onions evenly over the flatbreads.
Crumble the blue cheese over the onions, distributing it evenly.
Sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves and a pinch of black pepper.
Slice the flatbreads into wedges or squares and serve warm.
