Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a large casserole dish or 9x13-inch baking pan.
- Slice the chicken breasts in half so they are about ½ inch thick. Season chicken breasts on both sides with seasoned salt and black pepper.
- Add the slices on onion on top of the chicken.
- Next spoon the chunky salsa on top of each chicken piece.
- Add the water to the pan and cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake for 20 minutes. Then remove the aluminum foil and continue baking until chicken is tender and juicy and the juices run clear, 20 minutes. Total time about 40 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let rest 5 minutes before serving. This will help keep the juices in the meat.
