Heat a large skillet over medium low heat. Add 1 tbs olive oil and sliced shallots and onions. Cook low and slow for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Onions should achieve a brown caramel color. Add 1 tbs of balsamic vinegar when onions are done, cook for another 1-2 minutes, then remove and set aside.

In the same skillet, add mushrooms in a single layer and cook until caramelized in all sides, about 8-12 minutes. Finish with 2 tbs of butter, salt and pepper.

Step 3

Mix 2 tbs olive oil, crushed black garlic, 1 clove regular garlic, salt and pepper and brush on your flatbread in an even layer. You could use tomato or white sauce if you so desire.

Step 4

In the skillet same skillet, add onions and mushrooms over low heat, scraping the bits of frond off the bottom of the pan. Add butter, olive oil, chili flakes, salt & pepper, and another cloves of minced garlic. Stir until combined. Add cooked pasta, using the pasta water to help loosen and thicken your sauce. Top with more fresh herbs, juice of a lemon, and parmesan cheese.

Step 5

Assemble flatbread: olive oil sauce, caramelized onion, 1/2 of the mushrooms, cheese, other 1/2 of the mushrooms. Bake for 8-10 minutes.
