Caramelized Onion Quesadillas w/ Habanero Chutney

August 20, 2007  |  Food  | 

I love my Blake Makes readers. I love them even more when they send free food!

McQuade’s Celtic Chutneys sent me a few jars of their delicious chutney a couple of weeks ago, and I’m just getting to posting the amazing meals we made.

With their Elgin Habanero chutney, we made these caramelized onion quesadillas.

I thinly slice 2 onions and cook them over medium-low heat in a little olive oil and butter for about 45 minutes.

When they’re coffee-colored, they’re done.

Spread the onions on a tortilla, and dollop hunks of Camembert. Place another quesadilla on top and cook until golden and crusty.

We garnished with the chutney. To be honest, I was a little hesitant to eat it because it was Habanero and I didn’t want it to blow my head off. It was spicy at all. It was this really nice mix of sweet and savory. To me, there was a faint mini-gherkin quality about it.

It went very well with this meal.
