Savory Caramelized Onion Soup with Crispy Whole Grain Croutons
A heartwarming bowl of deeply caramelized onion soup enriched with a savory chicken boost, crowned with crispy whole grain croutons for an added crunch. This dish balances sweet and savory notes, making it a satisfying meal any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
2 medium Yellow Onions
2 cloves Garlic
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
2 cups Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme
3 ounces Cooked Chicken Breast
1 slice Whole Grain Bread
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (for croutons)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Thinly slice the onions and mince the garlic.
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the onions and a pinch of salt, and cook slowly until they are deeply caramelized, about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the minced garlic and fresh thyme during the last 2 minutes of caramelizing.
Pour in the 2 cups of low-sodium chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow the flavors to meld for an additional 5 minutes.
While the soup simmers, dice the whole grain bread into small cubes. Toss the cubes with 1 teaspoon olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Preheat the oven to 375°F and bake the bread cubes on a baking tray for about 10 minutes or until they turn crispy and golden, stirring halfway through.
Stir in the shredded cooked chicken breast to the simmering soup, warming through for an additional 2-3 minutes. Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper as needed.
Ladle the hot soup into bowls and top with the crispy whole grain croutons. Serve immediately.
