My father-in-law requested this every Father’s Day for 40 years. Three ingredients and it still beats anything from a restaurant.

This Oven Baked Chicken Bellhaven coats tender chicken breasts in a sweet-and-savory glaze made from sweet apricot preserves and savory dry onion soup mix. As it bakes uncovered, the sauce transforms into a rich, bubbling glaze that infuses the meat with delicious sweet-and-tangy flavor.

Oven Baked 3-Ingredient Chicken Bellhaven

Ingredients:

Ingredient Quantity
Boneless, skinless chicken breasts 4
Apricot preserves 1 cup
Dry onion soup mix 1 packet

Step-By-Step Directions:

  1. Preheat and prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly grease a rectangular glass baking dish. Arrange the chicken breasts in a single layer in the dish.

  2. Mix glaze: In a small bowl, stir together the apricot preserves and dry onion soup mix until well combined.

  3. Coat chicken: Spoon the glaze evenly over the top of each chicken breast, spreading it so every piece is completely covered.

  4. Bake: Bake uncovered for 35 to 45 minutes, until the glaze is bubbling and caramelized, and the internal temperature of the thickest part reaches 165°F.

  5. Rest and serve: Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving, then spoon the warm pan glaze over each portion.
