Savory Small Onions Parmesan Walnut Crumble Recipe

How to make it

---

• Toast whole wheat bread crumbs, crumble, set aside
• Place onions in boiling water for about 30 seconds, or as directed
• on package (this loosens the skin and makes peeling easier)
• Remove from boiling water with a slotted spoon
• When cool enough to handle, cut off both ends, peel
• In a skillet, on medium high heat, melt butter and olive oil
• When hot, add onions
• Let them *sizzle* until slightly browned on one side, then flip them over and let them continue to sizzle
• May have to turn heat down a little
• Add a lid, just keep them hot enough and *sizzling*, rolling them over and over, frequently, so they will not get too brown
• When they can be pierced with a fork, remove the lid
• Add the walnuts, thyme, white and black pepper
• (may have to add a little more butter or olive oil)
• Continue to sizzle until walnuts are coated pretty well
• Place onions, walnuts in casserole dish*, or serving dish
• Add toasted bread crumbs to skillet for a few seconds, just to warm
• Then sprinkle crumbs evenly over onions
• Then sprinkle evenly with Parmesan cheese
• Then sprinkle with cayenne pepper
• *If using a casserole dish, may run under the broiler, watching closely, just to slightly brown
• This is a great dish, and you can adjust it by adding crumbled bacon, pecans, nutmeg, different spices, etc.
