With this luscious treat, you’ll need only a bountiful tossed salad (and perhaps a steamed green vegetable—broccoli is a nice addition) to make a delightful meal.

　　

Ingredients

3 to 4 servings

　　1 1/2 tablespoons light olive oil

　　1 large red onion, quartered and thinly sliced

　　1 large white or Vidalia onion, quartered and thinly sliced

　　One 12- to 14-inch good-quality pizza crust

　　4 ounces smoked mozzarella or sharp cheddar cheese, grated

　　

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

　　

Step 2

Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the onions and cook slowly, covered, until soft and golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir occasionally.

　　

Step 3

Place the crust on a pan, arrange the onions on it, and sprinkle with the cheese.

　　

Step 4

Bake until the cheese is bubbly, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, let stand for 2 to 3 minutes, and cut into 6 or 8 wedges to serve.
