Boursin Cheese topped with Caramelized Onions and Crispy Bacon

Course: Appetizer, Snack

Ingredients:

• 5.2oz package Boursin Cheese, I used Garlic and Herb

• 1 white onion, thinly sliced

• 1 tablespoon dry white wine

• Salt and pepper, to taste

• 4-6 pieces of crispy bacon, diced

Instructions:

1. Remove your Boursin Cheese from the refrigerator and let it get to room temperature while you cook the onions and bacon.

2. In a large ovenproof skillet (cast-iron works well), melt the butter and olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the thinly sliced onions.

3. Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, for about 25-30 minutes or until they are soft, deeply caramelized, and have turned a rich golden brown color. Don't rush this step; slow caramelization is key to developing the sweet onion flavor.

4. If the onions start to stick to the pan, you can deglaze it with a tablespoon or two of white wine.

5. Season with salt and pepper then remove from heat.

6. Add onions to a bowl along with the bacon and mix well.

7. Remove the Boursin Cheese from packaging and place on a plate. Top with as much of the caramelized onions and bacon as you’d like and enjoy with crackers.
