Lightened-Up French Onion Soup with Gruyere Toasts
A modern twist on a classic soup, featuring deeply caramelized onions in a savory, low-calorie broth paired with a crisp whole wheat toast crowned with melted Gruyere cheese and a hearty shredded chicken boost. Enjoy a perfect harmony of flavors that’s both comforting and nutritious.
INGREDIENTS
1 large Yellow Onion (150g)
2 cups Low-Sodium Beef Broth (480g total)
1 tsp Olive Oil (4.5g)
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
1 slice Whole Wheat Baguette (40g)
1 oz Gruyere Cheese (28g)
3 oz Shredded Chicken Breast (85g)
PREPARATION
Thinly slice the onion and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and a pinch of salt, and sauté until they become soft and start to caramelize, about 15-20 minutes.
Pour in the low-sodium beef broth and add the fresh thyme sprigs. Bring to a gentle simmer and allow the flavors to meld for another 10 minutes. Remove the thyme sprigs once done.
Stir in the shredded chicken breast to warm through, ensuring an even distribution of protein in every spoonful.
While the soup simmers, toast the whole wheat baguette slice until lightly crisp. Top the toasted bread with the Gruyere cheese and place under a broiler for a minute or two until the cheese melts and bubbles.
Ladle the hot soup into a bowl and serve alongside the Gruyere toasts. Enjoy the comforting blend of flavors in each bite.
