French Onion Chicken and Rice Recipe (So Creamy)

My collection of recipes gathered from friends, family and the internet. I like finding whole food plant based recipes - plus traditional ethnic recipes and anything a bit unusual.

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 pounds yellow onions (about 2 large or 4 medium), sliced about ¼-inch thick (about 7 cups)

1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (from ¼ medium bunch), plus more for garnish

2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided, plus more as needed

½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more as needed

¼ cup dry white wine

1 cup long-grain white rice

2 cups low-sodium chicken broth

1 cup whole or 2% milk

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into bite-size pieces

6 ounces Gruyère cheese, shredded (about 1 ½ cups), divided
