Oven Baked 3-Ingredient Chicken Charleston
This Oven Baked 3-Ingredient Chicken Charleston is an easy, comforting dinner made with tender chicken thighs, sweet onions, and glossy Russian dressing. Everything bakes together in one dish for a saucy meal that is perfect over rice or mashed potatoes.
Ingredients
- 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 1 large sweet onion sliced into rings
- 1 cup Russian dressing regular bottled kind
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly grease an oval baking dish or a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
- Arrange the sweet onion rings across the bottom of the baking dish.
- Place the 6 chicken thighs on top of the onion rings in a single layer, skin side up, without stacking them.
- Spoon the 1 cup of Russian dressing evenly over the chicken thighs, making sure each piece gets a good coating.
- Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
- Remove the foil after 45 minutes and carefully spoon some of the pan sauce over the chicken. Return the dish to the oven uncovered and bake for another 25 to 35 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the onions are very soft and caramelized around the edges.
- Let the Chicken Charleston rest for 5 minutes before serving, then spoon the onions and sauce over each piece of chicken.
Notes
Store leftovers covered tightly in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days, keeping the chicken, onions, and sauce together. Reheat in a covered dish at 350°F until warmed through, about 20 minutes depending on the amount, or microwave loosely covered for a quicker option.
