Sauteed Lettuce Greens with Caramelized Onions

Yes The recipe has cooked lettuce! Its not a typo. Here is some history behind this recipe, A old Lebanese lady came over our home one day and told us about how she bought so much lettuce she didn't know what to do.So she cleaned chopped them up and cooked them the way we traditional cook other greens.I decided to try it and it was great! they taste like any cooked greens but without the mineral taste. I hope you give this a try.

1 large bunch romaine lettuce( one with more green leaves)

1 white onion,sliced

salt/pepper

1/8th cup olive oil

1 lemon

How to:

In a skillet add oil. on med-low heat saute onions, add a pinch of the salt to allow the waters to come out allowing them to become caramelized.

Once they are brown and caramelized , not burned take them out and place them In a plate.

To the still hot skillet add the lettuce  some more salt followed by pepper. saute until it begins to wilt and cook down.

Add 1/2 the onions back into the pot.

Continue cooking until the lettuce is tender this takes about 10 mins depending on the stove.

Place on serving plate ,serve up with the lemon on top or in slices on the side.

ENJOY!
