One-Pan Cheesy French Onion Chicken Skillet [+Video]

The best One-Pan Cheesy French Onion Chicken Skillet delivers all the joy of French onion soup without the hassle or long hours. With the addition of tender chicken, it’s packed with protein, making it a family-friendly dinner that even picky eaters will love.

This French onion chicken recipe is a spin-off of our beloved French Onion Soup recipe, inspired by the cozy flavors we fell in love with last year. After craving it for weeks, Cade suggested turning it into something new, and voilà—French onion chicken was born!

It’s the same comforting flavors, simplified, and served with chicken. Serve it on its own, over rich and creamy mashed potatoes, or alongside a fiber-packed veggie like roasted green beans, brussels sprouts, or broccoli for a well-rounded meal.

Ingredients for French Onion Chicken

The ingredients for this dish are straightforward and likely already in your kitchen! Here’s what you’ll need:

For the Onions

• Butter – you can also use olive oil if you prefer
• Yellow Onions – not too sweet and caramelize beautifully, but you can use white onions in a pinch
• Water – helps cook and soften the onions
• Brown Sugar – used for caramelization
• Garlic – flavor baby!
• Fresh Thyme – I love the pop of fresh herbs in caramelized onions!

For the Dish

• Chicken Breasts – you could also use chicken thighs or tenders
• Flour – helps create a golden sear on the chicken pieces
• Olive Oil – used to sear the chicken, adds incredible flavor
• Beef Broth – base of the sauce for simmering the chicken
• Chicken Broth – the other half of the base for simmering the chicken
• Worcestershire Sauce – flavor, richness
• Bay Leaf – flavor, will be discarded after simmering
• Gruyere Cheese – melts so well and is so creamy, the flavor pairs amazingly with the caramelized onions
• Parmesan Cheese – I never say no to more cheese!

The measurements of each ingredient can be found in the recipe card at the end of the post.

What to Serve with French Onion Chicken?

This One-Pan Cheesy French Onion Chicken is the ultimate cozy dinner! Think creamy mashed potatoes or buttery egg noodles to soak up all that dreamy caramelized onion sauce. Want to add some greens to the mix? Roasted or steamed veggies bring just the right amount of freshness. And let’s not forget a crusty baguette or a slice of sourdough—because scooping up that cheesy, oniony goodness is non-negotia

You only need two ingredients and about five minutes to make this easy hot fudge sauce. Creamy, thick, rich, and chocolatey hot fudge is a dream (and often a “must have in the house at all times” requirement) for any ice cream lover! 

I have a well-known love for ice cream and while I rarely turn down a scoop in a cone, I can’t resist a fancy ice cream sundae whenever I have the chance to make one.

This weekend, I had a blast playing with several new brownie recipes and this hot fudge sauce was worthy of each one.

Brownie Hot Fudge Sundaes

My favorite combination was the Almond Joy Brownies topped with a scoop of Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream and then generously drizzled with this Hot Fudge Sauce.

Years ago, my sister worked as a waitress at Christy Mae’s restaurant in Albuquerque, NM. Known for serving the best comfort food in the area, they also made a brownie sundae that my friends and I could never resist.

Their hot fudge sundae became a favorite indulgence among our circle and recreating it at home is one of my favorite desserts.

This hot fudge sauce is perfect for serving warm, right off the stove. Because it only takes a few minutes to make, I like to make it right before I’m ready to make ice cream sundaes.

Easy Cucumber Tea Sandwiches

My mom often worked with a group of young women when I was growing up and on one occasion they held a silly Mother’s Day garden party, complete with garden hats in our backyard. I wanted to go so bad, but I was little and this was something I’d have to wait a few years to attend.

It looked like so much fun to a little girl, and I was beyond thrilled when there were some fresh flowers left over that she let me play with. That’s also the first time I’d ever seen a cucumber finger sandwich and I didn’t know what to make of it. Little white bread squares with a slice of cucumber and plain cream cheese.

The Best Bread for Cucumber Sandwiches

Cade and I both wanted to work with eureka!® Organic Bread, but deciding on a recipe together was tricky. I happened to mention that I remember my Mom having a garden party in our backyard and someone brought cucumber sandwiches and Cade was like, “What’s a cucumber sandwich? Just cucumbers?!” It was decided on, cucumber sandwiches would be our recipe.

With spring in the air, I just had to recreate the classic tea sandwich but with our own twist. Cade was in charge of the bread and I don’t know why, but I was a little nervous he wouldn’t choose a good one, haha I need to be more trusting. He came home with Saaa-Wheat! eureka! Organic Bread because according to him, it’s bursting with rich flavor and tasty goodness and no artificial flavors, colors or preservatives. I’m pretty sold on that!

Bread was totally boring and not super good for you when I was little, but I’m loving how many varieties are out there now. If you’re sitting there thinking that you’re a die-hard fan of the processed white stuff, just trust us this one time, it’s ten times more flavorful of a sandwich when you choose a good bread, like eureka!
