Cheesy Caramelized Onion Skillet Bread image

This appetizer is perfect for a football game or informal party, but it came about because I have two sons who are always hungry. I needed time to get dinner on the table after coming home from work. They love the skillet bread for the flavor, and I love it because it keeps them in the kitchen to chat while I prepare the rest of dinner! If you'd like, you can use homemade biscuits instead of prepared. -Mary M. Leverette, Columbia, South Carolina

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 teaspoons caraway seeds
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 tube (16.3 ounces) large refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°. In a 10-in. cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet, toast caraway seeds until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove and set aside. In the same skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until softened, 5-6 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook until deep golden brown, 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in salt; remove from the heat and cool slightly. Sprinkle cheese over onions in skillet. Place melted butter and caraway seeds in a shallow bowl. Cut each biscuit into fourths. Dip biscuit pieces in butter mixture; place in a single layer over onion mixture in skillet. Bake until puffed and golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Cool in skillet 5 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate. If desired, sprinkle with thyme. Serve warm.
