Ingredients:

- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 10 button mushrooms, sliced
- 3 onions, thinly sliced
- 1 bunch of Swiss chard, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth

Instructions:
-
Saute Onions: In a large skillet, sauté the sliced onions over medium heat, covered, for about 15 minutes until they are softened and translucent.
-
Uncover and Cook: Uncover the skillet and continue cooking the onions for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they turn golden brown and caramelized.

Add Mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet with the onions. Cook until most of the liquid released by the mushrooms has evaporated.

Season: Stir in the minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and pepper, allowing the flavors to meld together.
-
Incorporate Swiss Chard: Add the chopped Swiss chard to the skillet and stir until it wilts and reduces in volume.

Simmer: Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 2 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
-
Cook Linguine: Meanwhile, cook the linguine in a pot of boiling salted water until it is al dente, according to the package instructions.
-
Combine: Once the linguine is cooked, drain it well. Spoon the caramelized onion, mushroom, and Swiss chard mixture over the linguine, ensuring to include some of the flavorful broth.

Serve: Sprinkle generously with grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
