How to Make Caramelized Onions Linguine

  1. Thinly slice 2 large yellow onions. Sauté onions in 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat, covered, for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. Uncover the onions and continue cooking for 5 minutes, until softened and starting to caramelize.
  3. Add 8 ounces cremini mushrooms and cook until most of their liquid has evaporated, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Stir in 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Add 1 bunch (about 10 ounces) Swiss chard, chopped, and stir until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Pour in 1 1/2 cups chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes.
  7. Meanwhile, cook 1 pound linguine according to package directions.
  8. Drain the linguine and divide it among serving bowls.
  9. Spoon the onion-mushroom-chard mixture over the linguine, reserving some broth to drizzle on top.
  10. Sprinkle generously with grated Parmesan cheese (amount to taste).
