4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (approximately 1-1/4 lbs.)
In a large, heavy skillet over medium heat, brown the chicken in 1 tbsp. oil. Remove chicken and set aside.
Add remaining 1 tbsp. oil to pan; stir in onions. Cook about 15 minutes until onions are golden, stirring frequently. Stir in remaining ingredients except parsley and chicken. Bring to a boil; cover and simmer 15 minutes.
Arrange chicken on top of lentil mixture; cover and simmer 8-10 more minutes until chicken is cooked through and lentils are tender. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
