Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add half of the sliced onions and cook, covered, until softened and translucent, about 10 minutes. Transfer the cooked onions to a plate.

02

Step
5 mins

Repeat with the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter and remaining onions. Once softened, return two-thirds of the cooked onions to the skillet, reserving the remaining one-third for garnish.

03

Step
2 mins

Stir in the flour, ensuring it's fully incorporated with the onions. Cook for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.

04

Step
5 mins

Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits. Remove from heat and let cool slightly, about 5 minutes.

05

Step
2 mins

Stir in the heavy cream and milk. Ensure the mixture is well combined.

06

Step
5 mins

Carefully transfer the soup to a blender (or use an immersion blender). Blend until completely smooth and creamy.

07

Step
5 mins

Return the blended soup to the stovetop and heat gently over medium-low heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Do not boil.

08

Step

Ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with the reserved sautéed onions and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.

For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth.
To make a lighter version, substitute milk for heavy cream.
A pinch of nutmeg can enhance the soup's warmth.
Soup can be made 1-2 days in advance.
