Sauced Chicken Breasts With Apples And Onions Serves 4 Recipes

ONE-PAN AUTUMN CHICKEN BREASTS WITH APPLES

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and butter in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and add to the hot skillet, skin-side down, leaving at least 1 inch between the breasts to ensure even cooking and browning. Cook until skin is browned, about 6 minutes. Turn and cook an additional 6 minutes until browned on both sides. Transfer chicken breasts to a plate.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet and stir in apples and onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes. Season with sage, rosemary, thyme, salt, poultry seasoning, and pepper; stir to combine.
• While apples are cooking, whisk together chicken broth, whipping cream, honey, and mustard in a small bowl. Pour broth mixture in with the seasoned apples and onions and gently scrape browned bits from the bottom using a wooden spoon. Slide chicken breasts back into the skillet, nestling them between onions and apples.
• Transfer skillet to the preheated oven and cook until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

SAUTEED CHICKEN AND APPLES WITH ROSEMARY

• Heat butter and oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat.

• Push the onion and apple slices to the sides of the pan and add chicken breast strips to the middle. Brown on both sides, about 6-8 minutes total. (If your pan is too crowded, do this in batches so you can properly brown the chicken.)

• Serve chicken and apples with extra pan juices and enjoy!
