Nestled in the cozy folds of comfort food, with its savory whispers of familial kitchens, is the humble French Onion Soup—a dish steeped in history and steeped again in hearty broths of tradition. But here in my Midwest homestead, where the winds dance through the golden fields of wheat and the hearth is the heart of the home, I transformed this classic soup into a main dish that's just as welcoming, yet mindful of the ol' carbohydrate intake. Low Carb French Onion Chicken is a rustic, earthy melody of tender chicken, caramelized onions, and rich, melting cheese, sure to satisfy your soul without the worry of excess. It's the kind of meal you make when you want that touch of France mingling with homegrown care on your Sunday table.
This Low Carb French Onion Chicken pairs beautifully with a side of roasted green beans or a crisp garden salad drizzled with a tangy vinaigrette. For those who fancy a bit more indulgence whilst keeping it low carb, a spoonful of mashed cauliflower can do wonders next to this hearty dish, soaking up that aromatic sauce.
