Baked Chicken & Onions

I know you're probably saying "Another chicken recipe Keith?"  I know, because that's what I was saying myself when I came across this and decided to publish this...Look..It's summer time and as much as I like Pork and Beef...It's good not to eat too much of either..To eat in moderation along with fruits and a healthy supply of green vegetables.

That said... This chicken dish is simple and elegant. If you're not a fan of paprika, try it out with your own favorite spice.
