INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast (170g)
2 medium Yellow Onions (300g)
2 cloves Garlic (6g)
2 cups Low Sodium Chicken Broth (480g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (5g)
1 tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar (15g)
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
1 Bay Leaf
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Thinly slice the onions and finely chop the garlic.
Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium-low heat. Add the sliced onions and a pinch of salt to help draw out their moisture.
Cook the onions slowly, stirring occasionally, until they become deep golden brown and caramelized, about 25-30 minutes. Add the garlic during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
While the onions caramelize, season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. In a separate pan, sear the chicken breast over medium heat until golden on both sides and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Once cooked, shred or dice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Pour the low sodium chicken broth into the pot with the caramelized onions. Add the bay leaf, thyme sprigs, and balsamic vinegar. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Let the soup simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Remove the bay leaf and thyme sprigs.
Stir in the shredded chicken breast, adjust salt and pepper to taste, and heat through for another 2-3 minutes.
Ladle the soup into bowls and serve warm.
