Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 1 packet (1 ounce) onion soup mix
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 3 cups (720 g) beef broth
- 2 cans (10.5 ounces each) condensed French onion soup
- 12 ounces wide egg noodles
- 6 ounces crispy fried onions
Instructions
- In a large skillet (I used a 12-inch) over medium-high heat, melt butter.
- Once melted, add onions and saute for 25-30 minutes. Stir occasionally until the onions are very tender and caramel color.
- Add the ground beef, onion soup mix, salt, and pepper. Stir to break the beef into smaller pieces. Cook until no longer pink, 5-7 minutes. (Remove any excess grease.)
- Add the beef broth and French onion soup.
- Add in the egg noodles, pressing them under the liquid to ensure the noodles are completely submerged. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Once boiling, cover and reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer for 10- 12 minutes, or until the noodles are tender.
- Remove the skillet from the heat. Top with crispy fried onions. Serve.
