Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 2½ cups beef broth
  • 2 large onions (5-6 cups), halved and thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, minced
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups swiss cheese, grated
  • ½ tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
  • Topping:
  • 1 cup panko or seasoned breadcrumbs

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350º F and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray.
