Recipe: Smoked Salmon and Caramelized Onion Sandwich – Serves 4

1 large red onion, sliced

• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, plus more if necessary

• 6 ounces smoked salmon

• 1 Persian cucumber, thinly sliced

• Fresh dill, chopped

• Fresh chives, chopped

• Cream cheese

• Kosher salt

• 8 slices wheat bread

1.) Put the butter in a shallow, wide pan. Once melted, add the onions and cook over medium high heat. Toss in butter to coat and dash with a bit of kosher salt. Turn the heat down to low, cover and cook for 30-40 minutes or until browned. Stir occasionally. (If you need to add a little more butter to keep the onions from sticking, go for it.)

2. Once onions are browned, remove from heat and set aside. Lightly toast the bread slices and spread a thin layer of cream cheese on each one. Top four slices with a healthy sprinkling of fresh chives and dill followed by a few slices of cucumber, salmon and finally onions. Lay the remaining slices of bread on top.
