Elevate Your Weeknight Dinner

The boneless skinless chicken breast is a go-to option for quick and easy dinners, but who says it can’t be used for something more special? That’s where these French Onion Stuffed Chicken Breasts come in. Taking inspiration from the classic French Onion Soup, this dish boasts the same rich, caramelized onion flavor and melty cheese, making it feel truly special and incredibly delicious. Trust us, the extra time spent caramelizing those onions is well worth it!

The Key to Flavorful Onions

We know, caramelizing onions can be a bit time-consuming, but don’t worry, it’s not difficult! The key is to give it the time it needs while cooking patiently. Slice your onions thinly and cook them slowly with butter and olive oil over medium heat. Let them cook down until they turn soft, sweet, and golden brown. This process usually takes about thirty minutes, but feel free to take your time and cook them even longer if you’re feeling patient. Stir them occasionally, and if they start to dry out, you can add some beef broth to keep them moist.

The Secret to a Brothy Goodness

French Onion Soup is known for its savory broth, and we want to capture that essence in this dish too. Once your onions have reached their heavenly caramelized state, spread half of them in a baking dish and use the rest to stuff the chicken. Cut a slit lengthwise in each chicken breast, creating a pocket to hold the stuffing. Fill the pocket with onions, gruyere cheese, and parmesan cheese.
