Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook, stirring frequently, until they are caramelized and golden brown, about 25 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Broth and Seasonings

    Once the onions are caramelized, add the beef broth, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for an additional 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Dish

    Preheat the broiler. In an oven-safe dish, ladle the onion soup mixture and top with croutons, Swiss cheese, and Parmesan cheese.

  4. 4

    Broil

    Place the dish under the broiler for about 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes before serving.
