PREPARATION

  • 1

    Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.

  • 2

    Add the thinly sliced onion and a pinch of salt, and sauté until the onions are deeply caramelized (about 20 to 25 minutes). Stir occasionally to prevent burning.

  • 3

    Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth along with the bay leaf and thyme sprigs. Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

  • 4

    Add the shredded cooked chicken breast to the simmering soup, and let it heat through for about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  • 5

    While the soup simmers, preheat your broiler. Place the slice of whole-grain bread on a baking sheet and top with the Gruyere cheese.

  • 6

    Broil the toast until the cheese melts and begins to bubble, about 2-3 minutes. Keep a close eye to avoid burning.

  • 7

    Remove the bay leaf and thyme, then ladle the hot soup into bowls.

  • 8

    Top each bowl with the Gruyere toast and serve immediately.
