2 tablespoons Fresh parsley For garnish, adding freshness and color.
to taste Salt and pepper Essential for elevating flavors.
2 tablespoons Olive oil or butter Foundation for cooking the chicken; use butter for a rich flavor.

Flip the chicken and cook for another 4-5 minutes until cooked through.
Remove the chicken and cover with foil to keep warm.
In the same skillet, add the French onion gravy and deglaze the pan if necessary.
Let the gravy simmer for a few minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the chicken back into the skillet, spooning some gravy over each piece.

For a thicker gravy, let it reduce longer. Leftover gravy can enhance the dish when reheating.
