Print This Recipe



Just like French Onion Soup, except that beer replaces part of the stock.

INGREDIENTS

2 large red onions, sliced
6 tablespoons butter
3 cups chicken stock
1 can or bottle (12-ounces) beer
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 to 6 thick slices French bread
Grated Parmesan cheese

In a large saucepan, sauté onion in butter until soft.

Add chicken stock, beer, salt, and pepper. Cover and simmer about 30 minutes. Adjust seasonings.

Broil bread on one side about 3 inches from heat. Turn; sprinkle generously with Parmesan cheese. Broil 1 to 2 minutes more, or until lightly browned.

Pour soup into bowls. Add cheese-covered bread.
