Baguette with Caramelized Onions, Fresh Figs, Arugula, and Goat Cheese image

I made these vegetarian baguettes for a party last year and they tasted just fantastic. The combination of the herbed mild goat cheese, arugula, and the sweet onions and figs tastes great together.

Time 3h43m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons butter
6 onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pinch salt
16 figs, halved
3 tablespoons superfine sugar
½ cup chevre (soft goat cheese)
½ cup herbed goat cheese
1 tablespoon milk, or more as needed
1 bunch arugula
sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 baguettes

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Mix onion with olive oil and add to skillet. Cook slowly until onions caramelize but do not brown, about 40 minutes. Stir occasionally. Season with salt and allow to cool, about 30 minutes.
  • Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Lay out figs, cut side up, onto a baking sheet and sprinkle with sugar. Grill under the broiler until sugar has melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Allow to cool.
  • Combine chevre, herbed goat cheese, and milk in a small bowl until creamy.
  • Cut baguettes in half lengthwise and spread goat cheese mixture evenly over lower halves. Layer caramelized onions over the goat cheese, then cover with arugula. Cut figs into quarters or slices, depending on size, and layer onto the arugula. Top with the remaining baguette halves and wrap baguettes in plastic wrap. Refrigerate so flavors can combine, 2 to 3 hours. Slice and serve.

I'm not a big fan of goat cheese, so I used cream cheese instead. It was still very good.

This baguette is a little bit time-consuming to make, but it's worth it. The flavors are incredible.

I didn't have any arugula, so I used spinach instead. It was still delicious.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover bread. I had a baguette that was a few days old, and it worked perfectly.

I was skeptical about putting figs on a sandwich, but I'm so glad I tried it. They added a sweetness and crunch that really complemented the other flavors.
