FRENCH ONION SOUP STICKS
FRENCH ONION SOUP STICKS is one of my all-time favorite foods, After doing some research I found this recipe and I have made it in the past and it is absolutely delicious!
What You'll Need
- Six slices sandwich bread
- Six slices swiss cheese, cut in half diagonally
- Six slices provolone cheese, cut in half
- One half stick unsalted butter, divided
- One teaspoon olive oil
- Two large onions, sliced
- One can beef broth
- Two tablespoons white wine (optional)
- One quarter teaspoon dried thyme
- salt and pepper, to taste
How to Make It
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter with the olive oil in a medium-sized pot over medium heat.
- Add the onions and stir regularly until they are caramel in color and sweet.
- Add the beef broth, white wine (if using) and thyme. Season with salt and pepper, and simmer for 30 minutes.
- Remove the onion soup from the heat.
- Strain out the caramelized onions and reserve the liquid to use for dipping.
- Cut the crusts off of each slice of bread and discard the crusts.
- Flatten each piece of bread with a rolling pin.
- Layer 1 slice (2 half pieces) of the provolone cheese on top of the bread.
- Line up the straight edge of each half-circle piece with the edge of the bread to cover the most area.
- Then, layer the swiss cheese on top.
- Scoop anywhere from a half to full tablespoon of the caramelized onions on top of the cheese.
- Tightly roll up the bread and fillings.
- Use a knife to cut any cheese that is pushed out at the seam.
- Rest the rolled sticks seam-side down.
- Refrigerate the leftover onions in a tupperware container.
- You can use them on sandwiches, in more soup sticks, or in french onion dip.
- Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a medium sized pan over medium heat.
- Once the butter has melted, add the sticks, seam-side down.
- Let the bottoms become golden brown and turn every few minutes until the entire sticks are browned and the cheese is melted.
- Add more butter if necessary as you cook them, as they will burn if the pan becomes too dry.
- Serve the sticks warm with a side of the broth or french onion dip!
