CRISPY BAKED ONION CHICKEN

From the Knorr website. Flavorful, moist and delicious. Dec. 2007 NOTE: I could not find the Knorr soup mix, so I had to use Lipton Onion Soup Mix which was a bit salty and overpowering. If you use Lipton, I recommend using just a half a package of the soup mix.

OVEN BAKED ONION RANCH CHICKEN TENDERS



Oven Baked Onion Ranch Chicken Tenders image

This recipe is almost identical to Kittencal's Easy and Delicious Ranch-Parmesan Chicken (Recipe #200296). I used all the same spices. I had chicken tenders left after I used up all of the seasoned breading from her recipe (because I wasn't using the size she stated in the recipe) so I mixed more using Frenches Brand French Fried Onions instead of the parmesan cheese and everyone loved them. She had the option of using less spices and you can do that with this one if you want, but we liked it with the full teaspoon of spices. Also due to the onions being fried, I left the butter off of the Onion Ranch batch because there was enough fat from the onions to brown nicely. As Kittencal said, you can marinate your chicken in the ranch dressing 2 -24 hours (highly recommend it because it was wonderful). I marinated mine for 18 hours. Prep time does not include marinating, but is longer than Kittencal's because of the smaller, more numerous pieces taking longer to coat.

Time 29m

Yield 20-30 chicken tenders, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 lbs chicken breast tenders
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 cup French-fried onions
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup ranch salad dressing

Steps:

  • Set oven to 400° F with rack in lowest position.
  • Lightly grease a 13 x 9-inch or larger foil lined baking sheet.
  • Place the fried onions in a shallow bowl and crush them until they are about the size of your panko bread crumbs. I used an absorbant paper towel to crush them to remove some of the excess oil.
  • Add the panko, seasoned salt, black pepper and garlic powder to the crushed onions and mix together.
  • Dip the chicken into the ranch to coat and allow excess to drip off.
  • Coat in the onion and panko mixture.
  • Place in a single layer on the greased baking sheet. Do not use a smaller baking sheet to prevent soggy chicken coating.
  • Bake uncovered for 7 minutes turn and cook until done. Usually another 7 to 10 minutes depending on the size of the tenderloins. This will take longer if you use full size chicken breast.

BAKED ONION CHICKEN, GRANDMA'S



Baked Onion Chicken, Grandma's image

This recipe is from the late 1960's or early 1970's. Grandma liked her onions and this recipe was one she sent to me while I lived in California. She made a note, "THIS IS GOOD!" And we thought she was right.

Provided by Kathie Carr

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 chicken breast halves or chicken pieces of your choice
6 Tbsp melted butter
1 pkg dry onion soup mix (like lipton)
6 medium potatoes, cut in 2 or 3 pieces each
2 medium onions, cut in wedges

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place chickenin a 9 by 13 inch baking pan. Drizzle 1 tablespoon butter over each chickenpiece. Sprinkle dry onion soup mix evenly over chicken breasts. Place onions and potatoes in pan around chicken.
  • 2. Cover pan with lid or foil and bake for 50 minutes. Uncover and continue baking for 10-15 minutes more until chicken and potatoes are done and browned a bit.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: For this recipe, bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or breasts work best. The bones and skin help the chicken stay moist and flavorful during baking.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives the chicken its delicious flavor, so don't skimp on the ingredients. Use a mixture of olive oil, herbs, spices, and citrus juice.
  • Preheat the oven: Before you start cooking the chicken, make sure to preheat the oven to the correct temperature. This will help the chicken cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. It should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit in the thickest part of the chicken.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Onion baked chicken is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With just a few ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy. The marinade infuses the chicken with flavor, while the onions add a sweet and savory note. Whether you serve it with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad, onion baked chicken is sure to be a hit.
