Fig and goat cheese sandwiches with caramelized onions

·   8 slices of wheat & barley bread
·    1 large yellow onion, sliced
·    10 ounces soft goat cheese (not crumbled)
·    14 large fresh figs, ends removed and thinly sliced
·    1 tablespoon olive oil
·    4 tablespoons unsalted butter
·    Salt to taste

Makes 4 sandwiches

Warm 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium sized sauté pan over medium heat. Add the onions and pinch of salt. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring frequently, until onions have softened and turned light brown in color. Remove from heat and set aside (or store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to two days).

To assemble the sandwiches: layer slices of goat cheese, caramelized onions and fig slices, making sure that goat cheese is the first and last layer for each sandwich (it should be touching the bread).

To grill sandwiches: In a large sauté pan or on a griddle, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwich in the butter and grill for 2-3 minutes per side, until the bread turns golden brown and crisp. Serve immediately.
