French Onion Pasta - a Trader Joe's Recipe

This French Onion Soup Pasta is another really easy weeknight meal for the family. Besides being really easy, it has the bonus of being a one-pan dish which I always appreciate mid-week. And since most of the ingredients can be stored in the pantry or the freezer, this is a great recipe to always have on hand as a back up or an alternative. Enjoy!

.French Onion Pasta - a Trader Joe's Recipe
Note: can be served as is, or with chicken 

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 pieces of Trader Joe’s French onion soup (frozen)
• 12-15 pappardelle nests
• 2 ½ Cups chicken broth
• ¼ Cup parsley, chopped
• 1 Tbsp chili oil or chili crunch, for serving

PREPARATION:
Step 1:
Add both containers of French onion soup to the bottom of a large pan or Dutch oven.

Step 2:
Nestle the pappardelle nests around the soup cubes.

Step 3:
Pour the chicken broth over the nests.

Step 4:
Over medium heat, bring the pan to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook for 12-15 minutes, until the pasta is cooked and most of the liquid is absorbed. (note: Stir 1-2 times while cooking to prevent sticking to the pot.)

Step 5:
Scatter fresh parsley and stir to mix. After plating, drizzle with chili oil or chili crunch for a little spice.

​(note: you can easily add some rotisserie chicken if you need to up the protein.)
