Caramelized Onion Orzo

Caramelized Onion Orzo

by Pam on March 18, 2014

I wanted to serve orzo as a side dish for dinner. I decided to make it extra special by adding caramelized onion to it along with sautéed minced garlic and fresh parsley. The orzo was flavorful and delicious – my husband and I loved the onions! My son, on the other hand, couldn’t believe I would ruin pasta with onions!  My daughter didn’t say much about the orzo but ate it all so I’ll take that as a good sign. Simple and fast – perfect for a weeknight side dish.

Heat a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Side Note: If the onion starts to get dry, add a little bit of water to moisten them up. You can also add more olive oil if you prefer.

When the onions are 10 minutes from being done, cook the pasta, per instructions in salted water. Drain.

Add the minced garlic to the finished caramelized onions and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.

Add the pasta to the onion mixture along with the fresh parsley then season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Toss to mix thoroughly. Serve immediately. Enjoy.

Shredded Beef, Caramelized Onion, and Cotija Cheese Baked Flautas

Shredded Beef, Caramelized Onion, and Cotija Cheese Baked Flautas

by Pam on March 10, 2013

We had friends over for dinner and I made my Shredded Beef Soft Tacos[1] because my friend Kyle loves my shredded beef. We had leftover meat so the following day I made these baked flautas for lunch and they turned out delicious! You just can’t go wrong with shredded beef and caramelized onions! This was a great way to use up the leftover meat and a very tasty lunch that we all enjoyed.

Prepare the shredded beef. Click this link for the recipe[2].

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with tin foil then place two wire cooling racks on top of the baking sheet. Side Note: Using the cooling racks help prevent the flautas from getting soggy from the liquid in the beef while baking.

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and caramelized. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to tasteSide Note: Add a little water if the onions get dry while cooking to prevent burning.

Heat the flour tortillas in the microwave for 20-30 seconds so they become pliable. Place a bit of caramelized onions in the center of the tortilla first then add some shredded beef (make sure to drain most of the juice from the beef) on top followed by a sprinkling of cotija cheese; roll. Place, seam side down, on the cooling racks on top of the baking sheet. Finish rolling the rest of the flautas, then spray each of them with cooking spray.

Place into the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes then turn over and cook for an additional 5-6 minutes or until crispy and golden brown.

Serve the baked flautas immediately with guacamole[3], salsa[4], and/or sour cream, if desired. Enjoy.
