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.
