Roasted Red Onion Panzanella image

This recipe came from Chef Craig Stoll, chef and owner of the Delfina restaurant in San Fransisco, California. I did scale down the recipe to feed 12. You can easily cut this recipe in half. Great for a crowd for the holidays!

Turn the onions over and roast for 20-25 minutes more, or till onions are lightly browned on the outside and soft and creamy inside. Cool.

  • For each serving place 1 1/2 cups bread in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add about 1 1/2 tbls. vinaigrette and 1 tbls. hot stock. Toss until bread absorbs the liquids. Combine bread with 1/4 teaspoons thyme, 1/2 cup greens, 1 teaspoons pine nuts and 2 or 3 cherry tomato halves. Top with 1/2 cup roasted onions. Serve immediately and enjoy!
