- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ cup sherry or dry white wine

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter. Add onions and season with salt and pepper and thyme. Cook slowly until very soft and caramel colored, stirring occasionally.
- Deglaze pan with sherry or wine, then add stock and bring to a low boil. Let cook until liquid is nearly gone, 5-10 minutes.

- Refill each potato shell and place on a baking sheet. Top with remaining onions and gruyere cheese.
- Bake until cheese has melted. For more color, broil on high for 1 minute. Enjoy!
