Best 2 French Onion Egg Skillet Recipes

FRENCH ONION BREAKFAST STRATA

Steps:

• Rub a small splash of olive oil across an 8-inch baking dish, or equivalent.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, onion dip mix, and milk. Add the eggs and whisk well again. Arrange the bread cubes in the prepared baking dish in an even layer. Very slowly, drizzle the liquid mixture over the bread and sprinkle with the cheese. Cover the dish and refrigerate overnight.
• When you are ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F and place a rack in the center. Bake the strata, uncovered, for 45 to 55 minutes, until the egg is set and puffy and the edges are golden brown. (Cut into it to be sure it is well cooked.)
• Serve the strata warm, drizzled with a bit of olive oil and sprinkled with chives.

FRENCH ONION CHICKEN SKILLET

Steps:

• Combine flour and dry soup mix in a plastic bag. Add 1/2 of the chicken and shake to coat. Reserve remaining flour mixture.
• Heat 1/2 of the canola oil in a large, deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 of the coated chicken and cook until brown all over and no longer pink in the center, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining coated chicken, then uncoated chicken, working in batches if needed.
• Add onion and bacon; cook until onion is soft and bacon is crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Blend remaining flour mixture with water and add to the pan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and let simmer, covered, for 20 minutes. Stir in mushrooms and simmer, uncovered, for 2 minutes more. Stir in sour cream until blended, then swirl in parsley.
