Lightened-Up French Onion Soup with Herb-Crusted Sourdough
Savor a refined twist on the classic French onion soup featuring deeply caramelized onions simmered in a light, savory broth enhanced with lean turkey breast. Topped with a herb-crusted sourdough slice and a whisper of low-fat Gruyère, this dish delivers comforting flavors with a nutritious boost.
INGREDIENTS
2 medium Yellow Onions
2 cups Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
3 ounces Lean Turkey Breast
1 slice Sourdough Bread
0.5 ounce Low-Fat Gruyère Cheese
3 sprigs Fresh Thyme
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 pinch Black Pepper
1 pinch Salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven broiler to high heat.
Thinly slice the onions and heat the olive oil in a large, heavy pot over medium heat. Add the onions and a pinch of salt, then cook slowly until they are deeply caramelized, about 20-25 minutes.
Add the low-sodium chicken broth to the pot and bring to a gentle simmer. Allow the flavors to meld for 10 minutes.
While the soup simmers, season the lean turkey breast lightly with salt and pepper. If desired, quickly sear it in a non-stick pan until just cooked through, then dice into small pieces. Stir the turkey into the simmering soup.
Place the sourdough slice on a baking tray. Top with the fresh thyme sprigs and the low-fat Gruyère cheese. Put the bread under the broiler for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly, watching carefully to avoid burning.
Ladle the hot soup into bowls and top each serving with the herb-crusted sourdough. Sprinkle a little extra black pepper if desired and serve immediately.
