Cheesy Caramelized Onion Flatbreads deliver as a flavorful appetizer. We like the mix of cheeses and black sesame seeds in these tasty snacks.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
- 1/2 large white onion, very thinly sliced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
- 2 soft flatbreads or naan (about 4 to 5 ounces each)
- 1/2 cup fresh ricotta cheese
- 1 large garlic clove, minced
- 4 ounces fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced (about 6 slices)
- 1/4 cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano cheese
- 3/4 teaspoon black sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon thinly sliced fresh basil
- 1/2 teaspoon orange zest
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 °. Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and 1/8 teaspoon salt; sauté 8 minutes or until onions are lightly caramelized. Transfer to a small bowl.
- Brush flatbreads with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil. Stir together ricotta, garlic, and remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt in a small mixing bowl, and spread onto flatbreads. Top evenly with cheeses and caramelized onion. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Place flatbreads on a large baking sheet, and bake 12 minutes or until cheese is melted and flatbreads are crisp. Let stand 5 minutes. Sprinkle with basil and orange zest, and cut into slices.
