Grilled
Flatbread with Caramelized Onions
Yield: 4 flatbreads, 8 servings |
Wine
suggestion
Gamay,
which is the grape used to make Beaujolais, is lighthearted,
fun and juicy, and with its good acidity, light body and
low alcohol is the ultimate summer red wine. Choose one
of the "Cru Beaujolais," which are not to be confused with
"Beaujolais Nouveau," and serve it slightly chilled.
|
- 2
Tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2
cup plus 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 3
medium Spanish onions, thinly sliced
- 1
teaspoon sugar
- 2
pounds assorted wild mushrooms (Portobello, chanterelle, porcini),
stemmed and cleaned
- 1
pound fresh mozzarella
- Four
10- to 12-inch rounds or rectangles of flatbread dough
- 1
cup crumbled Cabrales blue cheese
- Kosher
salt and freshly ground pepper
Preheat
a gas or charcoal grill to medium or use a side burner (or the
stove). Melt the butter with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in
a large sauté pan. Add the onions and sugar and cook until
soft and caramelized, 15 to 20 minutes. Heat ¹ cup of olive oil
in a large sauté pan over high heat and sauté the
mushrooms until golden brown and soft. Season with salt and pepper.
Preheat a gas or charcoal grill to medium high. Brush the rounds
of dough with the remaining ¹ cup of olive oil and grill until
crusty and golden brown on one side, about 4 minutes. Turn over
and grill another 4 minutes. Remove from the grill and place on
a sheet of aluminum foil. Spread each bread with the mozzarella,
onions, and mushrooms, and sprinkle with the crumbled blue cheese.
Close the grill cover and cook for 3 minutes. Place the breads
on a large platter and cut into quarters.
