# Steps:
01 -
Slice each chicken breast into thin cutlets, then drizzle lightly with olive oil and rub it into both sides. In a small bowl, combine the seasoned salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper. Generously season the chicken on both sides.
02 -
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken cutlets for about 4–5 minutes per side, or until golden and cooked through to 165°F. Remove and set aside.
03 -
Lower the heat to medium-low and add 2 teaspoons of olive oil and the butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add in the onions and stir to coat. Cook slowly for 25–30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized and golden brown.
04 -
Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir to combine. Cook for 2–3 minutes to remove the raw flour taste, then whisk in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and beefy onion soup mix. Let it simmer until thickened.
