Ingredients

• 1.5 tbsp olive oil
• 1 red onion, sliced Lyonnaise-style
• 2 cups melon, diced (assorted cantaloupe and honeydew)
• 1 tbsp basil, cut into fine chiffonade
• red wine vinegar
• black pepper
• feta cheese
• 1 tbsp pine nuts

Directions

1. Toast the pine nuts in a dry pan over high heat until just browned (or just use a hot air popcorn popper)

2. Heat a saute pan and when hot, add the oil. Add the onion and toss for 30 seconds or until fragrant. Add the melon and toss until halfway cooked, about 2 minutes. Add the basil, vinegar and pepper and toss for 30 seconds to 1 minute more. If the melon is still too hard, cover and let steam briefly. Remove the pan from the heat and immediately toss in the feta cheese. Turn out onto a serving platter and garnish with the pine nuts.
