Ingredients:
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1-2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon oregano
Red pepper flakes to taste
Salt and pepper
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
( or Gruyere)
2-3 T. unsalted butter
5 large onions ( I used 2)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 - 1/2 cups chicken stock
parsley for garnish
1. To make chicken casserole: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
Lightly spray a 9" X 13" baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium/high heat. Add onions and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5-8 min. until soft.
3. Reduce heat and cook until onions are caramelized.- about 15 min. longer. Pour in 1/4 cup broth if pan gets too dry. Keep stirring until onions are browned.
4. Stir in minced garlic about 1 min. Turn off heat and cool a few min.
5. Season chicken breasts w/o oregano, crushed pepper flakes, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Go easy on salt because onions and cheese have salt. Arrange chicken breasts in prepared baking dish.
6. Divide onions on top of each chicken breast. Sprinkle cheese on to and bake 25- 30 min. ( more depending on thickness. Turn on broiler and broil additional 2 min. Garnish w/o chopped parsley if desired.
