This is a fairly common autumn dish in Indiana. It always reminds me of local harvest festivals. Crimson and gold leaves under foot, hay rides, the crisp sweet smell of the air...comfort food, pure and simple. There are many variations, but this is the favorite in our home. To be honest, I've never measured the spices before I sat down to write this, so please feel free to adjust to your own tastes.

Time 45m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 cup peeled and thinly sliced baking apples (preferably Cortland)

1 pinch paprika, or more to taste
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:
