Sweet Onion Pie *

1 1/2 cups crumbled buttery round crackers
6 Tbsp butter, softened
2 cups thinly sliced sweet onions
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 eggs
3/4 cup whole milk
1 Tbsp minced chives
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 pinch paprika
Fresh Parsley

Preheat oven to 350.  In a mixing bowl, combine crackers and 4 Tbsp butter, until well blended.  Press onto bottom and up sides of 9 inch pie plate.  Refrigerate until needed.  Melt remaining 2 Tbsp butter in skillet.  Saute garlic and onion until tender, about 10-12 minutes.  Arrange onions over cracker crust.  Let onions cool for about 5 minutes, so as to not scramble the egg mixture that will be poured over.  Beat eggs, milk, chives, and salt in a bowl until well blended.  Pour mixture over cooled onions.  Sprinkle with mozzarella and paprika.  Bake in preheated oven for 35 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.  Serve hot or at room temperature.
