How to Make Onion Soup With Fontina And Thyme Everyday Italian

  1. Preheat your broiler.
  2. In a medium, heavy saucepan, heat the 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
  3. Add the 2 large thinly sliced yellow onions, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10-12 minutes, until the onions are softened and lightly caramelized.
  4. Add the 2 sprigs of fresh thyme and 4 cups of broth. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook, uncovered, for about 15-20 minutes, or until the onions are very soft and tender.
  5. Preheat oven to broil.
  6. Divide the soup evenly among 4 (1 1/2-cup) oven-proof ramekins.
  7. Divide the 4 slices of cubed bread evenly among the ramekins.
  8. Top each ramekin with slices of Fontina cheese, using about 1 ounce per ramekin.
  9. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and broil for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly.
  10. Carefully remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy immediately!
