Crockpot French Onion Chicken 🧅

Summary

Do you love French Onion Soup? Do you love chicken? I am pretty sure you are in the right spot. Because what I created is a little masterpiece that I like to call Crockpot French Onion Chicken.

I have the perfect method and flavor profile to not only prepare the cheeziest chicken, but also thicken the sauce to pour over mashed potatoes.

So, say goodbye to your children complaining when they come home from school and spotting the crockpot plugged in. Because, when they smell the aroma and see the cheese pull they will be running to the dinner table.

This simple little ramekin of cornstarch and butter is the secret to a creamy sauce for the French Onion Chicken. This will help thicken and make the dish creamy. This is a little secret my grandmother taught me many years ago.

I use this technique for SO many of my dishes. Including many of my pan sauces. This little combo makes your pan sauces so silky creamy too. It made this Crockpot French Onion Chicken so delicious.

Remove the lid, shake in the worcestershire sauce, and add in the cornstarch paste (made by combining equal parts of the softened butter and cornstarch until it becomes a paste). Almost time to serve.

This final step is where you lift the lid and smell the delicious aroma and add your sliced provolone cheese. The cheese will melt into your French Onion Chicken dish for a cheesy finish.

I dipped the bread in to this dip and when I tell you it was insane, I mean it. The soup absorbed into the bread and made for the most delicious bite.
