Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 cups caramelized onions
1 cup beef broth
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried thyme
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
Prepare the Chicken:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Sear the Chicken:
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Sauce:
In the same skillet, add the caramelized onions and beef broth. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Assemble the Bake:
Return the seared chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them into the onion mixture. Top each chicken breast with shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake:
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve:
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve the French Onion Chicken Bake with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes or a crisp salad.
