Sometimes a girl’s just gotta have something with butter and cheese. The zucchini noodles are the only thing that make you feel a little less guilty about indulging in this delicious side dish. Super easy to make. Recipe originally from here.
Ingredients
4 cups zucchini noodles (or two medium sized zucchinis)
1 large yellow onion, diced
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped (+ more for garnish)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
¼ cup beef broth
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 cup fontina cheese, grated
salt and pepper to taste
What to do
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
In a skillet preheated to medium heat, melt butter. Place onion into skillet and cook for a few minutes. Add salt, pepper, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and thyme. Stir and cook for another couple of minutes. Add beef broth and cook until onions are golden brown about 7 more minutes. Make sure to stir occasionally to keep the onions from burning.
Next, spray an 5 X 8 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. In a large bowl combine zucchini noodles and French onion mixture. Pour the French onion zoodle mixture into the dish and garnish top with Fontina cheese. Place in the oven and bake for about 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh thyme if desired. Enjoy!
