Step 1
Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the sliced onions and garlic, cooking them until the onions are soft and translucent, about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 3
Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cook for an additional 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 4
Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until it's smooth, or transfer the soup to a countertop blender in batches and puree until smooth, then return to the pot.
Step 5
Stir in the heavy cream, salt, pepper, fresh thyme, and Parmesan cheese. Continue to heat until the soup is warm, but do not let it boil.
Step 6
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
