Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375˚F.
  2. Season the chicken breast on each side with half (.5 oz) of the onion seasoning.
  3. Heat a large, oven proof skillet over medium high heat. Melt half (2 tbsp) of the butter in the skillet then lay the chicken breast flat in the skillet (see note.) Allow to cook without moving for 2-3 minutes, or until seared, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  4. Add the onions, remaining butter, remaining onion soup mix and 2 tbsp water to the skillet and reduce the heat to medium low. Allow the onions to cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring regularly. You can add extra water as they cook if needed. They should become translucent and caramelized once done.
  5. Place the chicken back into the skillet and top with mozzarella cheese then bake in the oven for 10 minutes. Then sprinkle the bread crumbs over the cheese, and return to bake for 5-10 more minutes or until chicken is done (165˚F internal temperature.) Optional: Turn the oven to broil for the last 1-2 minutes of the cooking time to toast the bread crumbs more heavily.
  6. Once done, garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm.

Notes

  • If the you have too much chicken to lay flat with piling on each other in your skillet, cook the chicken in batches for this step.
