French Onion Pasta Bake

onions

chicken breast (cut into 1 inch cubes)

Italian seasoning

unsalted butter

olive oil (divided)

beef stock

thyme leaves (removed from stem)

pinot grigio (1 small bottle)

all purpose flour

Better Than Bouillon beef paste

pasta shells

salt and black pepper

gruyere cheese

In a large cast iron skillet [see note #1] over medium heat, add the 2 tbsp olive oil and 3 tbsp butter. Once butter has melted, add in the onions and a pinch of kosher salt. Sauté the onions for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften. Lower the heat to medium/low and continue to cook onions stirring frequently so they do not burn [see notes]. After 20 minutes, add in the 3 tbsp of beef stock and continue stirring the onions. For the rest of the caramelization process, you'll need to be frequently stirring so the onions do not burn. The whole process of caramelizing the onions takes about 40-45 minutes [see notes for important tips].

While the onions are cooking, cook the pasta to al dente according to package instructions. Drain and set aside. 

Remove the onions from the skillet using tongs and set aside. Turn the heat to medium/high, add in the 2 tbsp oil, the chicken, and the Italian seasoning. Cook chicken entirely through to 165 degree internal temperature. About 10 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

Lower the heat to medium, return the onions back into the pan. Deglaze the pan with the white wine and allow the liquid to reduce by half. Once liquid has reduced, add the flour and stir until combined with the onions. Add in the fresh thyme, the 2 cups beef stock, the beef bouillon paste, and freshly ground black pepper. Stir until all combined. Add the chicken back into the skillet, allow the french onion sauce to come to a boil and lower the heat to simmer. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Turn the heat off, add in the pasta shells, and carefully mix the pasta into the french onion sauce. Top with the freshly grated gruyere cheese, and place in the oven. Low broil until the cheese has melted. Carefully remove from the oven, top with fresh thyme, and serve.

One Pot French Onion Pasta

butter

large yellow onions, halved and thinly sliced

cup sherry

cup white wine

4-5 sprigs fresh thyme, plus extra for garnish

Kosher salt and ground black pepper

lb uncooked rigatoni

cups beef broth or stock

teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

cup freshly parmesan, plus

cup heavy cream, or half and half

Caramelize Onions - 

Heat up a large dutch oven or pot over medium heat and melt the butter. Add the thinly sliced onions and cook over medium for about 5 minutes until starting to soften. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for about 30 minutes until caramelized. Stir the onions occasionally to keep them from sticking to the bottom.

Deglaze Pan -

 Pour in the sherry and white wine to the onions. Scrape any bits off the bottom and let cook for a couple minutes so the wine reduces slightly.

Add Pasta Ingredients - 

Add the sprigs of thyme (you can use twine to tie them together in a bundle), a pinch of salt, heavy pinch of pepper, the uncooked pasta, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir to combine.

Boil - 

Bring the broth to a boil, give one big stir, and immediately lower the heat and cover the pot so it simmer. Allow to simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the pasta is al dente.

Finish Pasta - 

Turn off the heat and remove and discard the thyme sprigs. Stir in the heavy cream and parmesan cream until combined. Taste and adjust the salt and pepper, if needed.

Serve - 

Serve the pasta in bowls. I like to top with fresh parmesan and a light sprinkle of extra thyme leaves.

This one-pot French Onion Pasta is rich, creamy, and loaded with caramelized onions and shredded gruyere. It&#39;s a spin off of french onion soup, so if you love those flavours, you need to give this recipe a go for the perfect weeknight fall or winter dinner.

French Onion Pasta

pasta of choice (I used mafalda)

tbsp worcestershire

dry white wine (chardonnay)

heavy cream

tsp black pepper

nutmeg

tbsp fresh thyme (plus more for garnishing)

gruyere (shredded,

parmesan (shredded)

Begin by slicing your onions and set aside.

To a large deep pan, add your olive oil and butter and set to medium heat.

Add your onions and begin sautéing for at least 20 minutes, stirring often. You want them to cook low and slow, to avoid them from burning and to ensure they caramelize.

Once your onions are caramelized and rich in color, add your garlic, nutmeg, pepper, fresh thyme and sauté for an additional 2 minutes.

Deglaze the pan with your white wine and worcestershire, scrapping all bits from the bottom of the pan. Let simmer for 1-2 minutes, or just until the wine is reduced by half.

Add your pasta and beef broth, ensuring the broth just covers the pasta.

Cover and let simmer on medium heat for 10-12 minutes, or until the pasta is cooked and the broth has been absorbed. Tip: be sure to stir the pasta every few minutes to avoid it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.

Remove from heat, add your heavy cream, shredded gruyere, parmesan cheese and mix until combined.Tip: you can add a little extra heavy cream or beef broth to loosen the sauce if needed.

Dish up right away, top with extra fresh thyme and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese.

French Onion Soup Pasta

tbsp butter (use vegan butter if needed)

1.1 lb (500 grams) yellow onion, thinly sliced (~2 large onions)

garlic, minced

tsp fresh thyme, chopped (or 1 tsp dried thyme)

tbsp all-purpose flour rice flour

tsp low-sodium soy sauce

vegetable broth

(340 grams) short-cut pasta

tsp Freshly cracked black pepper

Heat a large Dutch oven or a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Melt butter and add the olive oil. Add the sliced onions and season with ¼ teaspoon of salt.

Cook, stirring often, for 45-50 minutes, or until the onions start to caramelize and have a deep golden brown color. In the beginning, you won&#39;t have to stir as frequently.

If they start to burn at any point, add a splash of water to bring the temperature down. When the onions start to develop some color (after 30 minutes), turn the heat to high and start stirring every 30 seconds to 1 minute.

When the onions have caramelized, add the minced garlic and fresh thyme, and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, or until fragrant.

Add the flour and stir. Toast for 30 seconds, then deglaze the pan with the white wine and soy sauce. Stir well to get any brow bits off the bottom of the pot. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the alcohol evaporates.

Add 2 cups of the vegetable broth, and the uncooked pasta, and season with 1/4 tsp of salt, and black pepper.

Cook the pasta over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, or until it absorbs most of the liquid. When that happens, add another 2 cups of vegetable broth, and continue cooking until it absorbs most of the liquid. Then, add the final 2 cups and cook until you have a luscious sauce and the pasta is cooked through This will take you roughly 25 minutes, for the pasta to absorb all of the liquid, release starch, and cook through.

The best way to tell if the pasta is ready is to taste it. It should be al dente, meaning the pasta should have a slight bite to it and be chewy, but still soft. In the end, turn off the heat and stir the cheese until it melts. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt and black pepper as needed. Serve!

This French Onion Pasta recipe has a rich and creamy sauce with caramelized onions, gruyere cheese, mushrooms, pancetta, and pasta. You can&#039;t beat this gourmet-style dish!

beef broth

chicken broth (or beef broth. See notes.)

hot sauce

Dijon mustard (can sub mustard powder)

parsley

½ teaspoon EACH: dried thyme, oregano

white button mushrooms

Salt/pepper (to taste)

Pancetta (diced)

dry white wine (see notes)

garlic (minced)

flour

gruyere cheese (shredded. Can sub mozzarella)

Parmesan cheese (freshly grated)

orecchiette pasta

Combine the sauce ingredients in a large measuring cup with a spout and set aside. Measure out remaining ingredients before beginning. (Although you can shred/grate the cheese while the onions cook.)

Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and sauté for 3 minutes. Sprinkle with salt, this will further enhance their flavor. Add the pancetta and sauté for 3 to 4 more minutes. Remove and set aside.

Turn the heat off. Add the wine to the same skillet and set the heat to medium. Use a silicone spatula to “clean” the bottom and sides of the skillet, this will add more flavor to the sauce.

Add the butter and the sliced onions. Cook, stirring frequently, for 10 minutes.

Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until caramelized, about 35 more minutes. Reduce heat slightly if the onions begin to cook too quickly. Add a splash more olive oil or wine to the skillet if additional moisture is needed.

While the onions caramelize, begin boiling a pot of water for the pasta. Once a boil is reached, stir in salt. (I use ½ tbsp. kosher salt.)

Add the garlic to the onions and cook for 1 minute. Add the flour and cook for 2 minutes, stirring continuously.

Add the combined sauce mixture (from step 1) in small splashes, stirring continuously. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer, partially covered, while you cook the pasta to al dente according to package instructions. Drain once cooked.

Reduce the heat of the sauce to low. Gradually sprinkle in the cheese, stirring continuously, until combined.

Add the mushrooms and the pancetta and stir to combine. Add the cooked pasta gradually, until your desired sauce-to-pasta ratio is obtained. Serve!
