Ingredients

• 1 whole chicken (cut into individual pieces)
• 1 large onion (sliced)
• 1/4 cup butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon Accent seasoning (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the chicken cooks evenly and develops a beautiful golden-brown color.

2. Prepare the Chicken: Thoroughly wash the chicken pieces under cold water. Pat them dry with paper towels. If you prefer, you can remove the skin from the chicken, but this is optional.

3. Prepare the Baking Dish: In a medium-sized casserole dish, pour just enough melted butter to coat the bottom. This helps to prevent the chicken from sticking and adds a rich flavor to the dish.

4. Season the Chicken: Sprinkle each piece of chicken evenly with seasoning salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. If you like a bit more flavor, you can also sprinkle a small amount of Accent seasoning.

5. Arrange the Chicken: Place the seasoned chicken pieces in the prepared casserole dish.

6. Add Onions: Lay the sliced onions on top of each piece of chicken. The onions will add a sweet and savory flavor as they cook.

7. Add Remaining Butter: Drizzle the remaining melted butter over the chicken and onions. This will help to keep the chicken moist and add a delicious richness.

8. Bake: Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake uncovered. For optimal results, baste the chicken approximately every 15 minutes to ensure it stays juicy and tender.

9. Serve: Once the chicken is cooked through and golden brown, remove it from the oven. This dish pairs wonderfully with crescent rolls, a fresh salad, mashed potatoes, green beans, or steamed broccoli topped with melted cheese. A baked potato also makes a perfect side.
