CHICKEN ONION SOUP

Steps:

• Dice the onions, put them in a crock-pot / slow cooker and toss them with the oil, salt and pepper. Turn crock-pot to low for 8-10 hours or high for about 5 hours. I start this before bedtime and wake to beautifully caramelized onions.
• Add broth and shredded chicken to the onions in the crock-pot.
• Raise crock-pot setting to high to bring soup to temperature and meld flavors. Adjust salt level if necessary.
• When ready to serve, turn broiler on; ladle soup into oven proof bowls, top with baguette, a slice of cheese and a sprinkle of parmesean. Place under broiler until cheese is melted.
• Soup's on!

3 INGREDIENT ONION SOUP CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine soup mix, crumbs and pepper in a paper bag.
• Shake chicken, a few pieces at a time, in mixture to coat well.
• Butter a large baking pan and place chicken in a single layer, not touching.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Remove pan, shake pan to loosen chicken. Turn over and return to oven.
• Continue baking another 30 minutes or until chicken is tender and nicely browned.
• As this chicken is without any sauce, it goes well with something like scalloped potatoes, or mac and cheese.

FRENCH ONION SOUP

Steps:

• Coat a large deep pot with olive oil. Add the onions and sprinkle generously with salt. Bring the pan to a medium heat. Stir the onions to coat with oil. Cover the pot and sweat for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Once the onions have gotten very soft and let off a lot of water, remove the lid and let the onions cook looooow and sloooooooooow. That's right low and slow to really develop their rich brown color and sweet flavor. There is no shortcut or rush for this, DO NOT TRY! Caramelized onions take a long time, about an hour, accept it and move on.
• When the onions are very brown and have gotten considerably smaller, add the sherry and cook until the sherry has reduced by half. Add the bay leaves, thyme bundle and chicken stock. Bring to a boil and reduce heat and simmer for at least 1 hour. TASTE for seasoning, you probably will need to season with salt. If the stock reduces too much add water to keep the liquid level up- this IS a soup after all. When done, the soup should be thick and very full flavored. TASTE! You may need to resason, caramelized onions are very sweet and require a fair amount of salt.
• Toast or grill the baguette slices. Fill ovenproof crocks 3/4 of the way with the onion soup, float 2 toasts in each bowl and top with grated Gruyere. Place the crocks under the broiler to melt the cheese and make it brown and bubbly. Top with chopped chives.
• Voila!!
