Submitted by Chef mariajane

"This is a wonderful side dish that can be served at most of your dinners, so tasty, and actually very easy to make. This can be made without the anchovies."

 

• Ready In: 40mins
• Ingredients: 8
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 2 medium onions, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
• all-purpose flour, for dusting
• 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
• 1⁄4 cup oil-cured black olive, pitted and halved lengthwise
• 4 -6 anchovies, fillets. (optional)

directions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F Melt butter with oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and thyme, and cook until onions are golden and soft about 10 minutes.
2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out pastry, and trim to 8 1/2 x 15 rectangle. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet, transfer to oven, and immediately reduce oven to 400°F Bake until pastry begins to rise, about 12 minutes.
3. Arrange onions in a single layer over pastry, leaving a 2-inch border around edge. Top with olives and anchovies (if using) . Bake 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 375F and baked until puffed and golden brown, about 15 minutes more, (tent with foil if crust browns too quickly.) Cut into squares.

I made this Martha Stewart recipe because usually her things are very good, however I wasn't overly impressed. The puff pastry deflated once the onions were placed on top so it wasn't as flaky as I would have hoped, also it didn't look pretty. The flavours were good but I wouldn't make this one again.
