MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

     Title: Shtetl Toast
Categories: Poultry, Breads, Vegetables, Herbs
     Yield: 4 servings

     1 lb Chicken fat with skin;
          - chopped in 1" pieces
          Salt
     1 sm Yellow onion, thinly sliced
          - lengthwise
     4 sl (9 oz. ea) Jewish corn rye
          - bread; cut 1: thick
          Lemon wedges; for serving

MMMMM-------------------------GARNISHES------------------------------
          Dill fronds
          Flat-leaf parlsey leaves
          Thin sliced radishes
          Flaky sea salt
          Fresh cracked black pepper

 In a 6 qt. saucepan, combine the chicken fat and skin
 with a pinch of kosher salt and 2 tablespoons water and
 heat over medium-low. Cook the fat, stirring, until it’s
 completely melted and the skin pieces are no longer
 pink, about 30 minutes. Stir in the onion, reduce the
 heat to low, and continue cooking, stirring
 occasionally, until the chicken skin and onions are
 golden brown, about 1 hour and 20 minutes.

 Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried skin and
 onions to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain.
 Reserve 2 tablespoons of the fat in the pan and save the
 remaining for another use.

 Heat a 12" cast iron skillet over medium. Add the fried
 skin and onions, and cook, stirring, until crisp, about
 3 minutes. Transfer to another paper towel-lined baking
 sheet to drain, and return the skillet to medium-high
 heat. Brush both sides of each slice of bread with some
 of the reserved chicken fat and, working in batches, add
 the bread to the skillet and cook, flipping once, until
 golden brown and slightly charred, 3 to 4 minutes.

 Transfer the bread to a serving platter and top with
 crispy skin and onions. Garnish with the dill fronds,
 parsley leaves, radish slices, flaky salt, and pepper,
 and serve with lemon wedges.
