ONION AND GOAT CHEESE TARTLETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Take a 2 1/2-inch round cookie cutter and cut out 12 rounds from 2 sheets of puff pastry. Take a 12 hole mini muffin pan and place rounds of dough into each hole, pressing gently to form a cup and giving room for the filling. Cover with plastic wrap and keep the prepared pan in the refrigerator or freezer (depends how long until you need it).
• In a skillet add butter and oil. Throw in the onions and cook gently until softened and caramelized, stirring frequently for about 15 to 20 minutes. Once cooked add the scallions and chives. Set aside to cool slightly.
• In a bowl whisk together the egg, cream, and salt. Add the cooked onions to the custard, stirring thoroughly. Pour into the prepared pastry cups with a spoon. Break up the goat cheese and place on top of tarts. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Serve.

CARAMELIZED VIDALIA ONION AND GOAT CHEESE TARTLETS

Steps:

• Place a large nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Add the butter and olive oil to the pan and heat until the butter is melted and the oil is shiny. Add the onions, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very soft and golden in color, about 25 minutes. Add the sherry and thyme and cook for 2 minutes more.
• Reduce the heat to low and add the goat cheese, half-and-half and lemon zest and juice. Cook, stirring, until the cheese is melted and incorporated into the caramelized onions, about 3 minutes. Add the chopped tarragon and season with salt and pepper.
• Prepare the tartlet shells according to the package instructions.
• While the filling is still warm, place a heaping tablespoon into each tartlet shell. Drizzle a pea-size drop of honey on each tartlet and top with a tarragon leaf.

CARAMELIZED ONION AND GOAT CHEESE TARTLETS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Remove the frozen puff pastry from the freezer and let it set at room temperature for 20-40 minutes, or in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. Start by caramelizing the onions in a saute pan in olive oil over medium heat. This will take 10-15 minutes. Keep stirring until they start to turn brown... you're bringing out the sugar in the onion and creating a caramel. When they have turned slightly brown in color, remove them from the heat. Unfold the puff pastry sheet and place it on a lightly floured cutting board. Cut it along the folds into three long pieces, then cut the large piece into 5-6 smaller rectangles. Pile onions in the center of each piece, then top with chunks of the goat cheese. Place the pastries on a baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray, lined with parchment paper or a Silpat. Bake at 425 degrees for 8-10 minutes until puffed and the edges are brown. Serve warm or at room temperature.
