Bake at 375 for 40 minutes. In the meantime, combine orange juice, water, brown sugar, nutmeg, and cornstarch.

After 40 minutes, remove chicken from oven and spread sliced onions generously over surface. Pour the orange juice mixture over the chicken. Cover with foil and bake at 325 for half an hour or until fork tender.
