- 1 Tbsp Land lakes light butter made with canola oil

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- In a skillet pan (or cast iron grill skillet) melt butter and add sliced onions.
- Saute the onions in butter until softened and translucent.
- When onions become soft, place onions on a plate and set them aside.
- Using the same skillet, spray the skillet with non-stick cooking spray.
- Season each chicken breast with paprika, garlic powder, and seasoned salt. Place seasoned chicken breasts into a prepared skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes on medium-high, on both sides or until chicken breasts are golden brown.
- Add onions back into the skillet with the chicken breasts.
- Pour in the can of French onion soup.
- Simmer the chicken and onions in the soup for 2-3 minutes will allow the soup to caramelize the chicken.
- If using a CAST IRON SKILLET PAN top each chicken breast with light mozzarella cheese. (otherwise-transfer chicken, onions, and sauce into an oven-safe baking dish and top with light mozzarella cheese.)
- Place a skillet or baking dish in a preheated oven.
