Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 tablespoons butter unsalted
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cups yellow onion sliced
  • 5 cups beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons dry sherry
  • 1 teaspoon thyme dried
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste, ground
  • 6 lices French bread
  • 6 lices provolone cheese
  • 4 lices swiss cheese diced
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese grated

Instructions

  1. Heat the Dutch oven or a large pot over medium heat. Add the butter and olive oil, and stir until the butter melts. Add the onion slices and occasionally stir until they are soft and translucent, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  2. Add the beef broth, dry sherry, and dried thyme. Season the soup with salt and ground black pepper, then stir well. Simmer the soup for 30 minutes over medium heat.
  3. Preheat the broiler to high. Ladle the soup into oven-safe ramekins and top each with a slice of French bread, a slice of provolone cheese, a few pieces of diced Swiss cheese, and finish with more grated Parmesan cheese on top.
  4. Broil for 2 to 3 minutes, until golden brown on the edges. Serve immediately, topped with freshly chopped parsley.
