Categories Sandwich Onion Pork No-Cook Quick & Easy Summer Gourmet

Yield Makes 2 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

3/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 large sweet onion such as Vidalia or Walla Walla
4 slices good-quality whole-wheat sandwich bread
1/4 lb thinly sliced cooked ham (preferably Black Forest)

Steps:

Finely chop parsley in a food processor, then add butter and salt and blend to a paste.
Cut 4 (1/8-inch-thick) slices crosswise from center of onion, reserving remainder for another use.
Spread 1 1/2 teaspoons parsley butter on 1 side of each slice of bread. Arrange 1 onion slice on each of 2 bread slices and spread each with 1 1/2 teaspoons parsley butter, then top each with one fourth of ham. Repeat layering with remaining onion, parsley butter, and ham, then cover with remaining bread slices, buttered sides down.

Tips:

If you don't have dry white wine, you can substitute with chicken broth or water. However, dry white wine adds a nice depth of flavor to the sandwich, so if you have it on hand, it's worth using.
Be sure to cook the onions slowly over low heat. This will help them caramelize and develop a rich, sweet flavor.
If you're using a baguette, slice it in half lengthwise so that you have two long, thin pieces. This will make it easier to assemble the sandwiches.
Spread a generous amount of softened butter on the bread before adding the onions and cheese. This will help the bread to get nice and crispy when it's toasted.
If you like, you can add a slice of tomato or avocado to the sandwiches before grilling. This will add some extra flavor and texture.
Serve the sandwiches immediately while the bread is still crispy and the cheese is melted.

Conclusion:

Sweet onion sandwiches are a simple but delicious meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They're perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal, or for a special occasion party. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sandwich that is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a new sandwich recipe, give sweet onion sandwiches a try.
