Sweet Onion Focaccia

Fun to make; heaven to eat.
This recipe is one of our favorites from the
Great TABASCO Recipes cookbook.

 |
|
 |
Dough: |
 |
1 envelope active dry yeast |
 |
3/4 cup warm water (110°F) |
 |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
 |
1 teaspoon salt |
 |
Yellow cornmeal |
| |
|
 |
Topping: |
 |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
 |
1 large red onion, sliced |
 |
1 large yellow onion, sliced |
 |
1 7-ounce jar roasted red peppers, drained and sliced |
 |
2 teaspoons fresh chopped rosemary or 3/4 teaspoon dried rosemary |
 |
1/2 teaspoon TABASCO brand Pepper Sauce |
 |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
| |
|
| |
|

Sprinkle yeast over water in small bowl; stir to dissolve yeast. Let stand about 5 minutes. Stir in flour and salt to make soft dough. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes, adding more flour if necessary. Shape into ball. Place in greased bowl; turn to coat. Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
While crust is rising, prepare onions. In 12-inch skillet, over medium-high heat, in hot oil, cook sliced red and yellow onions until tender, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Preheat oven to 425°F. Sprinkle large baking sheet or jelly-roll pan with cornmeal. Punch down dough. Roll or pat dough into 13 x 9-inch rectangle.
Spoon prepared onions over dough; top with roasted red pepper strips, rosemary, TABASCO® Sauce and salt.
Bake on lowest rack 20 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
Makes 6 servings.
