Ingredients

Butter - 1.8 oz
Onion - 2 lbs

Medium-dry sherry - 3 tablespoons
Campbell's Beef Broth - 1 qt
Garlic - 2 cloves

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Melt the butter in a pot and sauté the sliced onions and thyme over low heat until soft, about 20 minutes.

Step 2

Increase the heat and caramelize the onions for another 15 minutes until they are dark golden brown, stirring occasionally.

Step 3

Pour in the sherry and cook for another 2-3 minutes, then add the broth, season with salt and pepper, bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 10 minutes.

Step 4

Meanwhile, toast the sliced baguette on both sides until golden. Rub both sides with the garlic cloves. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with grated cheese. Place on a baking sheet and put under the broiler for a few minutes until the cheese melts.
