Caramelized Onion with Steak and Blue Cheese Bruschetta Recipe: Great appetizer that packs a punch so serve with red wine!
Ingredients
- 4 Tablespoons Olive Oil, Divided
- 2 whole Large Yellow Onions (sliced Thinly)
- 1 teaspoon Salt, Plus A Pinch
- 1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Pepper
- 1 loaf French Baguette
- 1 cup Blue Cheese
- 1 pound Steak (very Thinly Sliced)
Preparation
Preheat oven to 400°F.
In a large saucepan heat up 2 tablespoons olive oil on low heat. Add the onions and cook on low for 15-20 minutes, until soft and translucent, then add a pinch of salt and the brown sugar. Cook onions for an additional 10-15 minutes, until brown and caramelized. Keep temperature low so as to not burn the onions.
While the onions cook, take the french bread and cut on the bias (diagonal) to get the most surface area on your bread. Should be about ¼ inch thick. Line bread on a baking sheet and brush remaining olive oil on each piece. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Bake for 10 minutes and remove from oven. Top with a smear of blue cheese (as if you were buttering bread), then the steak and onions and then about 1 teaspoon worth of blue cheese. Cook in oven for 10 additional minutes.
Allow to cool and serve.
