Slice the Onions 5 Minutes
Lay an onion on its side on a cutting board and cut the onion in half. Avoid cutting off the top and bottom cores of the onion. Lay each half flat on the board and cut through the core. The stem of the onion will hold the onion quarters together. Lay each quarter on the board and vertically slice off pieces using your knuckle to guide the blade. Cut the pieces to the desired width.

Bake the Chicken Breasts 30 Minutes
Turn your oven on to 350. Using a deep sided baking pan place any veggies or fruit in the pan and add the water. Place a rack over the ingredients and put the chicken breasts on top of the rack. Sprinkle everything with salt and add any other herbs or spices that are required by the recipe. Place in the oven and cook for 30 minutes. Check at the 20, 25 and 30 minute marks. You can test a piece of chicken by pulling a breast out of the pan, cutting it in half and chicken to see if it is cooked through. The interior piece of the chicken should look moist and succulent and not tough and dried out.
