Amish Onion Chicken Bake
Ingredients
- 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 4 medium pieces)
- 3 large sweet onions (such as Vidalia), thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, melted
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish.
- Spread the sliced onions evenly across the bottom of the dish.
- Arrange the chicken breasts in a single layer over the onions.
- Pour the melted butter evenly over the chicken and onions.
- Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
- Bake for 1 hour 30 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Remove the foil during the last 15 minutes of baking if you would like the onions to brown slightly.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
