How to make French Onion Chicken Bake
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 400 degrees. Using cooking spray, grease a baking dish.
Step 2: Into a large skillet, melt the butter over medium to high heat. Once the butter has melted, add the sliced onions to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring often.
Step 3: Adjust the heat to medium, then add the garlic to the pan along with the pepper and thyme. Cook for an additional minute.
Step 4: Pour in the beef broth and balsamic vinegar. Stir well and continue to cook for another 10 minutes until the onions have a jam-like consistency.
Step 5: Into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, place about 1/3 of the onion mixture. On top, lay the chicken and season with salt. Add the rest of the onions on top and sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan.
Step 6: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees.
Step 7: Remove from the oven when done and serve the French Onion Chicken Bake immediately. Enjoy!
Notes:
If using thick chicken breasts, slice them in half diagonally, making sure they have the same sizes.
If desired, you can add more spices to the dish.
