Description
This rich and buttery onion soup is inspired by the classic from Outback Steakhouse. With just a few ingredients, it’s simple, cozy, and full of savory flavor.
Ingredients
2 cups yellow sweet onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons butter
1 (15-ounce) can chicken broth
¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter.
Add sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until deeply caramelized—about 15–20 minutes.
Pour in chicken broth and add salt.
Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for another 10 minutes.
Serve hot, optionally with toasted bread or shredded cheese on top.
Notes
Optional Additions: Top with shredded cheddar or Swiss cheese and broil until melted for a cheesy finish.
Make it heartier: Add a splash of cream or top with croutons for a more filling version.
Storage: Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove.
