Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for brushing on the bread
2 yellow onions
1 teaspoon salt
freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon sugar
4 flatbreads or pita bread
4 ounces goat cheese
arugala
fig spread

Steps:

Heat the olive oil in a medium fry pan over medium-low heat. Add the onions, salt, and pepper, and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. The heat should be low enough that the onions sizzle quietly but don't brown too quickly. Add the sugar and continue to cook for another 15 to 20 minutes, until the onions are dark golden and a darker brown crust begins to form on the bottom of the skillet. Turn off the heat and set aside. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Brush a bit of olive oil on each flatbread and sprinkle on some kosher salt. Put some arugala on each. Scatter the onions evenly over each flatbread and crumble one ounce of goat cheese on each. Put fig spread on sparingly. Bake for about 8 minutes, until the cheese is beginning to melt and the flatbread gets slightly crisp. Remove from the oven and cut into pieces.
