Yield Makes 12 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 large red onions (1 1/2 to 1 3/4 pounds), halved, thinly sliced
1/2 cup dry red wine (such as Zinfandel)
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
3/4 pound sweet Italian sausages (about 4 links), casings removed
Pizza Dough Rounds or 1 pound purchased fresh pizza dough
Nonstick olive oil spray
2 cups (packed) coarsely shredded Manchego cheese,* divided

Steps:

  • Heat vegetable oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add onions and sauté until soft and deep golden brown, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Stir in wine, vinegar, and sugar. Reduce heat to low and simmer until almost all liquid is absorbed, stirring often, 3 to 4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to small bowl. Cool.
  • Heat medium skillet over medium heat. Add sausage; sauté until cooked through and browned, breaking up with back of fork, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to small bowl. Cool. DO AHEAD: Onions and sausage can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately; chill. Bring to room temperature before using.
  • Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Lightly flour 2 rimless baking sheets. Divide purchased pizza dough in half (if using). Working with 1 dough round or dough half at a time, roll out on lightly floured surface to 12x8-inch oval. Transfer to baking sheets. Spray top of flatbreads with nonstick spray.
  • Invert flatbreads, sprayed side down, onto grill. Cook until grill marks appear and sides of bread are dry, 3 to 5 minutes. Return to same baking sheets, grilled side down. Spray uncooked side with nonstick spray. Turn flatbreads over on baking sheets, grilled side up. Sprinkle 3/4 cup cheese over each flatbread. Sprinkle onions, then sausage, over flatbreads, dividing equally. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup cheese over, dividing equally. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
  • Transfer flatbreads, topping side up, to grill. Cover and cook until crusts are crisp and cheese melts, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to work surface. Cut into rectangles and serve.
  • A Spanish cheese made from sheep's milk; sold at some supermarkets and at specialty foods stores.

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 (16-ounce) store-bought pizza dough
Extra-virgin olive oil
3 large onions, sliced
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 (8-ounce) container mascarpone cheese
1 cup crumbled blue cheese
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 cup toasted walnuts, roughly chopped
1 cup firm California red grapes, slit down the middle
2 tablespoons freshly chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Remove the pizza dough from the refrigerator 1 hour before you ready to start.
  • In a large saute pan over medium low heat add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add onions and slowly caramelize until brown and creamy about 20 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
  • Heat the grill over medium-high heat and wipe down with oiled paper towels to create a non-stick surface. On a floured surface, roll out each of the pizza dough into an elongated shape, about 12 by 8-inches and about a 1/2-inch thick. Brush with olive oil and grill on both sides until warmed through and grill marked, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking sheet.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the mascarpone and blue cheese. Smear the cheese mixture over each of the grill pizza crusts. Place in oven for 2 to 3 minutes until the cheese melts. Remove from oven and transfer to cutting board or platter.
  • Top with caramelized onions, toasted walnuts and fresh grapes. Season with a few turns of freshly ground black pepper, drizzle with some more extra-virgin olive oil and top with fresh parsley.

FLATBREAD WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS & CHEESE



Flatbread With Caramelized Onions & Cheese image

This is a very versatile dish from Bonnie Stern who has owned a cooking school in Toronto Canada for over 30 years. It can be served at a cocktail party, as an appetizer or as a main course with a side salad. My DH & I have been known to devour the whole thing, with a few glasses of wine, on a Saturday night!!

Categories     Cheese

Time 1h10m

Yield 40 triangles

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 large onions, chopped
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 lb frozen puff pastry (defrosted but cold)
6 ounces brie cheese, diced (rind removed)
6 ounces mild blue cheese, diced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chervil or 2 tablespoons parsley

Steps:

  • Heat oil over medium high heat in a large skillet.
  • Add onions; cook until wilted& starting to brown.
  • Add sugar, vinegar, salt& pepper.
  • Reduce heat& cook gently for 15- 25 minutes or until onions are caramelized& brown.
  • Cool.
  • Roll pastry into a rectangle approximately 12 x 16 inches. I don't use the sheets of puff pastry - I prefer to use the 375gm package of Tenderflake Puff Pastry. I start rolling it out on my counter, then I transfer it to my baking tray (which has been lined with parchment paper) and roll the pastry to fit the tray. Since puff pastry is very "forgiving", you can "cut & paste" if necessary.
  • Spread onions over pastry.
  • Dot with cheese& sprinkle with chervil.
  • If you are preparing this for a party, you can prepare to this point and refrigerate- then bake later.
  • Bake in preheated 400F oven for 20- 25 minutes or until cheese has melted& pastry is crisp.
  • When removed from the oven, it will be puffed right up but allow it to cool for 5 minutes & it will fall back down. Cut into 20 serving pieces - this is easier done with kitchen scissors instead of a knife - then cut each piece in half diagonally.
