Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 10.5-ounce can condensed French onion soup
- ¾ cup French onion dip
- 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 8 slices provolone cheese
- 2 cups garlic croutons
- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter melted
- 1 cup crispy fried onions
- 2 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Pour the French onion soup and Worcestershire sauce into the bottom of the baking dish.
- Arrange the chicken breasts on top. Sprinkle the chicken with the seasonings.
- Divide the French onion dip by 4 and spread over each chicken breast.
- Melt the butter and mix with the crushed croutons. Sprinkle the crouton mixture over the chicken. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil from the baking dish and top each chicken breast with 2 slices of provolone cheese. Broil until the cheese is just browned, then sprinkle with crispy fried onions and fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
- Use thick slices of provolone for the best melt.
- Buttering the croutons keeps them crisp and adds rich flavor.
- Broil for the last minute or two if you like extra crunchy croutons.
- Serve over mashed potatoes, buttered egg noodles, or rice to soak up every bit of the French onion sauce.
