Bacon, Onion, and Fig Flatbread Recipe
- 1 large (11- or 12-inch) store-bought flatbread
- 4 ounces bacon
- 1/2 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 cups baby arugula (about 2 ounces)
- 5 medium figs
- Bake flatbread as directed on the packaging.
- Crisp bacon in a large frying pan over medium-low heat.
- Remove to a paper-towel-lined plate, set aside to cool, then crumble.
- Discard all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat, add onion, and cook, stirring rarely, until well-browned, about 15 minutes.
- Add vinegar and cook until the strong vinegar aroma has dissipated, about 1 minute.
- Remove the pan from heat and let cool slightly.
- Place arugula in a large nonreactive bowl.
- Slice figs crosswise into 1/4-inch coins and add to the bowl along with crumbled bacon and cooled onion mixture.
- Toss to evenly combine and season with additional vinegar, salt, and freshly ground black pepper as desired.
- Evenly arrange mixture on toasted flatbread.
- Cut into squares and serve.
