Creating One-Pot French Onion Pasta is easy if you follow these simple steps:
1. Heat the Olive Oil: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
2. Caramelize the Onions: Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10-15 minutes until they are soft and caramelized.
3. Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
4. Add Broth and Pasta: Pour in the beef broth and add the pasta. Bring to a boil.
5. Cook Pasta: Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for about 10-12 minutes or until the pasta is al dente, stirring occasionally.
