I just made this today and it is so yummy. I did the slow cook option. Thank you for teaching me how to use my foodi. It sat on my counter for a year I was afraid of it. Now I use it every day. :) I am on keto and it is so much easier using the foodi
Hi Louise I made the French Onion Chicken today, it's absolutely gorgeous. I love your chanel, you are so easy to follow and you have a lovely homely, friendly manner. Barbara from England.
I watched video this morning , went to the store and purchased all the ingredients , got home and fixed this for dinner! I’m keto so I put mine on a bed of spinach but my son and hubby put there’s on bread with melted cheese! Big hit , so scrumptious! Thank you for sharing!
Hello Louise. I just made this French onion chicken. Wow, it was delicious. I used chicken thighs and yes I had to cook them 3-5 mins longer. I omitted the cheese due to allergies to Swiss. I put it over creamy mash potatoes. What a treat. This recipe is very versatile. Thank you for sharing this wonderful dish.
I made this to my wife for our Sunday lunch at home and she LOVED IT. I even remember her saying that it was restaurant quality... Ha! 🔥 😀. Thank you Louise, all of your recipes look amazing!
I made this in my new Ninja Foodie. So easy to make after watching your video. So delicious. I didn’t have chicken breast so I Used thighs and I didn’t have beef broth I used chicken broth. 👍Thumbs up all the way. I toasted some bread like you did. I. Haded garlic and cheese. Anyway, that being said. My husband over it too.
This is EXCELLENT!!!!! We just finished eating this for dinner tonight and it was fabulous! It was SO tasty. The only thing I did different was to use mozzarella instead of the Swiss cheese. The one thing that was a pain - was slicing the chicken, but I have gone to your Pampered Chef site and bought that nice cutter you used - can't wait till it arrives. Another one out of the ballpark Louise! Also bought the ingredients for the Chop Suey/Chow Mein dish - gonna make it tomorrow night. Wish me luck! Luv ya Ms. Louise.
I live for your reactions when you do the final taste. You know it’s darn good by looking at your reaction. Thanks for all your videos from a fellow Ninja Foodi fan.
I loved this one I have followed you as soon as I got my ninja foodi xl 8qt 11-1 and I did this recipe tonight turned out really good but my chicken was a little tuff to cut? I am not a cook but am trying did I brown the chicken to long? Thanks you are great!
Sometimes chicken breasts are that way even when you cook them correctly. It's possible that you cooked them too long or that the chicken was older and the meat is simply tougher.
Wonderful! I'm going to the store tomorrow and was thinking... my husband and I absolutely LOVE French Onion Soup and I was wondering if I could substitute mozzarella cheese instead of the swiss cheese for this. Would it cook any differently? I just LOVE your channel - you are THE BEST!!!!!
Hi, Louise! Ifinally drank the KoolAid and bought my 8 qt Ninja Foodi this weekend. You were a major factor in helping me decide to go this route!! My first meal was you French Onion Chicken and it wowed my hubby!! Thank you so much! Looking forward to lots more easy one pot meals!!
Teresa Smith it’s not KoolAid, it’s more like a fine wine! You won’t be sorry! I give you my guarantee for sure! The Ninja Foodi is amazing. I’m a cook and a previous restaurant owner and I’m blown away! I refused to drink the KoolAid when air fryers first came out and OMG... this appliance is a game changer! I’m so glad I waited for the wine! 🥰🥰🥰
@@TheSaltedPepper We have a big 10 at XL Pressure Cooker and I hated to spend so much money duplicating part of what I already had but tonight's meal was so easy & so good I'm convinced it was the right thing to do. What are your thoughts on purchasing the stainless pot? I have the seat & sizzle grate on order.
@@GoVoteDemocracy I was thinking pork chops, too. I'm glad it turned out well. I'm going to try the recipe out. French Onion Soup is one of my favorites so how can this not be amazing? :)
That looks so good...I could actually taste it while watching you cook it!! Lol Can’t wait to try it!! What is the advantage to the stainless steel pot?? Does it create a more even heat?
It conducts heat a little better and sears better in my opinion. It's really a personal preference, this recipe and all of the other ones work great in either pot.
I just made this with Sirloin & provolone instead of Chicken It is so yummy :) if you make it with steak though I would sear the steak frozen & then don't cook it as long unless you like it well done :)
So I see you invested in the stainless steel pot. Very Nice. I got one for the eight quart and it’s fabulous, especially if your sauté anything. By accident I ordered a 6 quart ceramic but I’m sure I can use it for smaller meals. What do you think? Looks delicious Louise!
Hi just ordered my Ninja foodue in UK. Love watching your recipes. Please tell me which beef stock you use. Is it readymade, make it yourself or a stock cube? Tia
Thank you thank you! Just bought the stainless steel inner pot ❤️ I’ve gotten so many items that I’ve seen you using and LOVE them! Edit: by the way, your eyes are POPPIN with that green shirt!
I love onions and chicken. When did Ninja Foodi come out with a stainless steel pot? I have been away from the Ninja Foodi for so long. I love your chicken it came out great!
It's just a personal preference. Some people don't like cooking on coated surfaces, like non-stick. For me, I like the sear that you get from stainless versus non-stick and that I don't have to be careful about what utensils I use.
I've kind of soured on Pampered Chef. I ordered the Close and Cut and Measure All on June 2nd. It didn't ship until July 9th. Will not arrive until July 17th. Covid aside, given the poor customer service on shipping they could have made up for it by using some mode of expedited shipping. But they didn't.
I agree 100% with you! They have not handled things as well as they should. As a consultant, I can't even reach them. It's been very disappointing to say the least and I do think this will hurt them for years to come. I still love the products though.
I guess this recipe is based on a classic French Onion Soup recipe which is traditionally cooked with beef broth. You could substitute it with any other broth, but I would advise against it, since the intense flavor of beef broth in particular goes really well with the sweetness of caramelized onions and thyme aroma, it's simply a classic combination
Like Ksenia said, I used beef broth to give the richness and color of a French onion soup. Any broth will work though. If you want to use chicken broth, try adding in a splash or two of Worcestershire sauce which will deepen the flavors.
I'm not a big fan of cooking meat from frozen, especially chicken breasts, but it can be done. I would probably PC the frozen breasts for a few minutes and then continue on with the recipe. You might not be able to cut the chicken in half, but that is okay, you'll just have to cook them a little longer.
OMG I can't wait to try this. I just bought the stainless steel pot. Arriving tomorrow and guess what we are having for dinner. You make everything look so delicious. I just love when you taste something. I am tasting it right along with you. Thank you. Hugs!
If you are concerned that it didn't cook all the way, definitely check a temp. 1" chicken breasts will be fully cooked with the temp/timing in this recipe.
I can't stand chicken breasts - or any white meat for that matter. Do you think boneless, skinless chicken thighs would be good? I want to try this so bad!!!

You come up with the best ideas 😺 I have a freezer full of tenders so will try the recipe out with that.
Sounds great!
Looks delicious! I love the option of using the stainless pot. I would use my Instant Pot when I wanted stainless. Now I use the Ninja for everything.
Thanks!
Totally making this!
I hope you love it!
That looks sooo goood!😋 will be getting chicken at market tomorrow! Thanks, Louise💕😊
Hope you like it!
For a traditional French Onion, I think I would add in a splash of Conyac. Still sounds great for a quick meal.
Jeff De Soto that’s a good idea!
Yummy! This looks delicious.
It is!
Hi from scotland louise this looks so tasty xx

You can certainly use mozzarella, no changes needed.
Looks beautiful. I bet this would work well over a bed of zoodles.
Definitely!
Awesome recipe
Thank you!
I want to try this with sauteed spinach
It's good that way!

That looks delicious. I love to watch until the end when she tastes it because you cannot not try it when you see how much she loves it. 😊
Hi Louise that onion chicken look so delicious. So want to try but don't have broil on my ninja xxx
If you are in the UK, it's called grill. If you have the 5qt without broil, just use the highest AC setting and you'll be fine.
@@TheSaltedPepper thank you Louise x
That looks so good, I’m going to try it with pork chops tomorrow.
Hope you enjoy it!
The Salted Pepper It turned out great, my husband and I enjoyed it very much.
@@GoVoteDemocracy I was thinking pork chops, too. I'm glad it turned out well. I'm going to try the recipe out. French Onion Soup is one of my favorites so how can this not be amazing? :)

You might need to cook the chicken longer, but everything else should be the same.

You shouldn't use the smaller pot in the 8qt Foodi, especially under pressure. Hopefully you can return the wrong size.
@@TheSaltedPepper thanks for advice! Back it goes. Thanks 😊
Great video🥰🥰🤗🤗
Thank you 🤗
Oh yum! 😋😋
I hope you try it!
That looks delicious!
Thank you!
Hi just ordered my Ninja foodue in UK. Love watching your recipes. Please tell me which beef stock you use. Is it readymade, make it yourself or a stock cube? Tia
I use the ready made kind in a container, but if you use a cube, just decrease the salt in the recipe. Enjoy!
Thank you x
Could you please tell me what function to use that is equivalent to broil, we do not have that in Australia
Is it the grill function?
It's probably the Grill function
My ninja foodi don’t have broil function, can I use grill or bake function instead?
If you have the pressure cooker with crisping lid, the grill function is the UK equivalent to Broil in the US.
They have stainless steel now. ? For the 6.5qt?
Yep!
Thank you thank you! Just bought the stainless steel inner pot ❤️ I’ve gotten so many items that I’ve seen you using and LOVE them! Edit: by the way, your eyes are POPPIN with that green shirt!
I'm so glad you are loving the accessories! Thank you for the compliment, too!
i used pork chops instead
my chicken was frozen it was some kinda good!!!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
I know to not do the bread, but how does the rest heat up later for another meal?
Yes, I usually like to use steam when reheating something lean like chicken.
I love onions and chicken. When did Ninja Foodi come out with a stainless steel pot? I have been away from the Ninja Foodi for so long. I love your chicken it came out great!
I will do this but I will add mushrooms to it. I love mushrooms
@@rolandgadue4351 great idea for us mushroom lovers 👍
@@Cattitude48 yes for us mushroom lovers
The SS pot came out a week or so ago. You can make this in the grill, I bet!
Love the picture of Liberty!! Which kind is he/ she?
Liberty is a Black Australorp.
That looks delicious, You look pretty gorgeous this morning
Thank you!
I was just thinking maybe with some steak? It looks yummy :) TY
That would be so good!
Hey Louise, what’s the advantage of the SS pot? Just curious...
It's just a personal preference. Some people don't like cooking on coated surfaces, like non-stick. For me, I like the sear that you get from stainless versus non-stick and that I don't have to be careful about what utensils I use.
Yeah stainless is more forgiving. The ceramic coated pots are nice but you have to be vigilant and use plastic coated utensils as you mention.
the ceramic ones are junk and scratch and chip. Stainless steel is healthier and won't wear out in a month like the one that came with it.
Can you suggest something to replace the thyme? We are not a fan of this spice.
I would just omit it or add a little Italian seasoning. Anything you like will work I'm sure. Salt and pepper would be just fine!
I've kind of soured on Pampered Chef. I ordered the Close and Cut and Measure All on June 2nd. It didn't ship until July 9th. Will not arrive until July 17th.

I dont see the close and cut on your Amazon page, do you have a Pampered Chef page?
I found it. Reading is fundamental.
Glad you found it!
I dont have a Ninja Foodie, could the done in a dutch oven?
Absolutely! I give stove/oven directions in the written post: thesaltedpepper.com/french-onion-chicken-in-the-ninja-foodi/
@@TheSaltedPepper thank you!!
Looks great, but one of the benefits of this machine was to be able to cook from frozen to done quickly. How much would that alter all of this?

I would have included mushrooms, but perhaps that would be a heresy?
I think mushrooms would be delicious!
I’m so trying this with rice though lol
That would be really good!
Looks great. So glad I bought the stainless pot. Could you substitute thighs for the breast? Thanks for your great videos
I don't see any reason you can't use thighs.
I noticed you didn't check the temp. of the chicken, is that not necessary?
If you are concerned that it didn't cook all the way, definitely check a temp. 1" chicken breasts will be fully cooked with the temp/timing in this recipe.
