Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup Whole cranberry sauce
- 1 packet French onion soup mix (dry packet)
- 0.75 cup Catalina dressing
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil.
Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and ground black pepper, then place them evenly in the baking dish.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cranberry sauce, French onion soup mix, and Catalina dressing. Stir well until fully blended.
Pour the cranberry mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, making sure they are fully coated.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to retain moisture, and place it in the preheated oven.
Bake for 35 minutes covered, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbling. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and let the dish rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
Serve warm with sides such as rice, mashed potatoes, or steamed vegetables. Enjoy!
