How to Make Chicken Breasts W Mushrooms Caramelized Onions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Season chicken breasts generously with seasoned salt and black pepper.
  3. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts and brown on both sides for about 3-4 minutes per side.
  4. Transfer skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
  5. While chicken is baking, heat remaining 1 tbsp olive oil in a separate skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Add sugar and red wine to the skillet. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until onions are caramelized and the liquid has reduced, about 8-10 minutes.
  7. Set caramelized onions aside.
  8. Add sliced mushrooms to the same skillet and sauté until tender and slightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  9. Remove chicken from the oven. Spoon caramelized onions over each chicken breast, followed by sautéed mushrooms.
  10. Sprinkle crumbled blue cheese over the mushrooms.
  11. Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until cheese is melted and slightly browned.
  12. Serve chicken breasts immediately over a bed of angel hair pasta, wild rice, or couscous (optional).
