The right spice blend can be your secret weapon to delicious food. Some seasoning blends I've tried are zero, while others have become the hero. My latest discovery (thanks, Mom!) is Kinder's Caramelized Onion Butter Seasoning. This spice blend truly tastes like what it claims to, and helped me create the most amazing chicken dinner with just three ingredients. The whole house smelled like butter (I had lots of thoughts of popcorn while it baked!), but the chicken is dairy-free.
To make this crispy high-protein baked chicken recipe, you need to locate a bottle of this caramelized onion butter seasoning blend. Check your local grocery stores (it is available nationwide) or see the link below. You'll also need bone-in chicken thighs (or your favorite chicken pieces) and olive oil. The chicken is seasoned liberally with the seasoning blend (even under the skin!) and then drizzled liberally with olive oil. The two ingredients combine with the chicken drippings to create the "butter" that flavors this gluten-free chicken dish to the bone.
Next time, I will put a layer of thinly sliced onions on the bottom of the baking dish. The onions will serve as a bed while the chicken bakes, and also become caramelized for a fantastic side dish. And just a disclaimer that this is not a sponsored post. I was not given the product by the company or paid to promote it. I just loved the spice blend and wanted to share it with you!
Serve this shortcut recipe for dinner with your favorite side dishes. I served this high-protein dinner with smoky paprika roasted potatoes and broccoli. What a delicious way to get more protein in your diet! Read about the health benefits of protein.

- 2 tablespoons olive oil (more if needed)
Recipe Notes
Here's how to make it:
- Put the chicken into a baking dish. Liberally sprinkle both sides and under the skin with the seasoning blend. Drizzle generously with olive oil. I didn't measure out the amount of seasoning and oil I used on my chicken, but the measurements above are close. Season and drizzle with your heart! For easier cleanup, line the bottom of the baking dish with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
- Bake in a preheated 350-degree F oven for about 40 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and skin is crispy. Chicken is cooked through at 165 degrees F internal temperature on a food thermometer. For color, sprinkle with parsley flakes. Store any leftover chicken in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
