2 tablespoon olive oil (divided)
2 large onions (yellow or sweet; sliced )
4 cloves garlic (minced)
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
4 split chicken breasts (bone-in, skinless)
Salt and pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 425 F.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onion and garlic. Cook, stirring, for 10 minutes, or until soft. If the onions start to crisp, reduce the heat.
  • Stir in the brown sugar and vinegar and cook for 6 to 7 minutes, stirring often, or until the onions are lightly caramelized. Remove from the heat.
  • Oil a baking dish with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and place the chicken in the dish in a single layer, bone-side down. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Spread the onion and garlic mixture over the top of the chicken breasts.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 F . Check the temperature in the thickest part of the chicken pieces. Cover loosely with foil if the onions are getting too dark or dry toward the end of the cooking time.
  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

You would not believe the flavor that comes out of such a simple recipe. The onion cheese combination is delicious. Swiss can be substituted but you won't get nearly the flavor. Recipe comes from a cookbook by Pol Martin.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Burger Recipes     Chicken

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ cup olive oil, or as needed
1 large sweet onion, sliced
1 pound ground chicken
½ cup panko bread crumbs, or to taste
6 slices deli ham, or more to taste, diced
1 large egg
½ green bell pepper, diced
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
4 slices Swiss cheese
2 tablespoons salted butter, softened
4 whole wheat hamburger buns
4 tablespoons hot, sweet mustard (such as Inglehoffer®)

Steps:

  • Coat the bottom of a large cast iron skillet with oil. Turn heat to high and wait until oil is hot but not smoking. Add onions and cook for 1 minute. Reduce heat to low or medium-low. Continue to cook, flipping onions every 8 minutes and adding oil if necessary to keep them moist, until dark and caramelized, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • While the onions are caramelizing, preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Combine ground chicken, bread crumbs, diced ham, egg, bell pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix to combine, being careful not to work the meat too much. Form into 4 patties.
  • Grill on the preheated grill over direct heat until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side, adding a slice of Swiss cheese to each in the last minute. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the burgers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Spread butter on the inside of the hamburger buns and grill, face-down, until toasty, about 3 to 5 seconds.
  • Place the patties with cheese on the bottom buns, top with caramelized onions, spread mustard on the top buns, and serve.
