Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Grease a baking dish.
Warm the oil and butter together in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and sugar; cook, stirring frequently, until onions are very soft and caramelized, about 25-30 minutes.
In the prepared baking dish, combine the rice, beef consommé, French onion soup, water, thyme, salt, and pepper; stir.
Spread the caramelized onions evenly over the rice mixture. Cover tightly with aluminum foil.
Bake for 30 minutes; remove the foil; stir; continue to bake uncovered for another 30 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed.
Remove from the oven; let stand for 5 minutes; fluff with a fork.
Serve, garnished with fresh thyme or parsley, if desired.
