Time 45m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 8

ΒΌ cup butter
2 onions, halved and thinly sliced
1 pint heavy cream
2 cups beef broth
salt and pepper, to taste
3 slices French bread
3 slices provolone cheese
3 slices Swiss cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to broiler setting.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onions and cook until softened, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream and beef broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, loosely covered, for 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Top each slice of bread with one slice of provolone and one slice of Swiss cheese; place on a cookie sheet. Broil on top oven rack until the cheese browns and the edges of the bread are crispy, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • To serve, ladle soup into 3 bowls and top with one slice of the cheese-topped bread.

I'm not a fan of ham, so I substituted chicken in this recipe. It turned out great! The soup was still creamy and flavorful.
