Main Ingredients- 1/2 medium Onion
- 2 Eggs
- 1 Tbsp Bacon Bits (or 2 Tbsp finely chopped bacon)
- 1 String Cheese stick
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your ingredients. Peel the onion and thinly slice it into strips. If using bacon bits, use them as is. If using fresh bacon, finely chop it. In a bowl, crack and whisk the 2 eggs to create an egg mixture. Tear the string cheese into manageable strips by hand. Doing these prep steps beforehand will save you time while cooking!
Step 2
Preheat a frying pan over medium-high heat for about 20-30 seconds. Add 1.5 Tbsp of cooking oil. Once hot, add the sliced onions and stir-fry over high heat for about 30 seconds. This quick sauté will soften the onions slightly while retaining their sweetness and evaporating excess moisture, contributing to a crispier pancake.
Step 3
Reduce the heat to low. Spread the sautéed onions evenly across the bottom of the pan. It’s important to create a thin, even layer of onions. Pour the prepared egg mixture over the onions, ensuring they are covered.
Step 4
As the edges of the egg mixture begin to set and cook slightly from the pan’s heat (as shown in the photo), evenly sprinkle the prepared bacon bits over the onions. The savory bacon will enhance the overall flavor of the pancake. Cover the pan with a lid and cook on low heat for about 2-3 minutes, or until the egg mixture is fully cooked through. Covering helps cook the inside thoroughly.
Step 5
Once the egg mixture is mostly set, artfully arrange the torn string cheese pieces on top. Cover the pan again and continue to cook on low heat until the cheese is completely melted and gooey. When the cheese is beautifully melted, your delicious Onion Cheese Pancake is ready! It’s best enjoyed immediately while warm.
