French Onion Chicken Bake

How to make French Onion Chicken Bake

French Onion Chicken Bake is a simple and speedy baked chicken recipe for fans of French onion soup, with caramelized onions and a combination of two kinds of cheese.

Ingredients:

4 Chicken Breasts, boneless skinless

4 Onions, peeled and sliced

4 tablespoons Butter

1/2 teaspoon Pepper

4 cloves Garlic, minced

1 c. Mozzarella Cheese, shredded

1/2 c. Parmesan Cheese, shredded

1/2 teaspoon Salt

1 teaspoon Thyme

2/3 c. Low Sodium Beef Broth

2 tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar

Instructions:

Prepare a baking dish by spraying it with cooking spray and heating the oven to 400 degrees.

Butter a big pan and heat it over medium to medium-high heat.

Sliced onions should be added to the melted butter and cooked for 5 minutes while stirring occasionally.

Add the garlic, pepper, and thyme, and lower the heat to medium.

Continue to cook for a minute more.

Add the beef stock and balsamic vinegar and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, or until the onions have become a jam-like consistency.

Once the onions have caramelized, use a third of the mixture to cover the bottom of a buttered baking dish.

Spread the onions out on a baking sheet and lay your big chicken breast on top of them.

Season chicken breasts very gently with your go-to seasoning.

The last of the onion pieces should be layered above the entire chicken breasts, followed by the mozzarella and parmesan.

Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees F.

Enjoy right away for the best chicken dinner with a mouthwatering French onion flavor!

Notes:

If using thick chicken breasts, slice them in half diagonally, making sure they are about the same size.

If desired, you can add more spices!
