Easily adapted for whatever you have on hand. I often substitute thighs for the breasts, regular brandy or apple juice for the apple brandy, and if you can't find Havarti Cheese, Gouda or Colby work well. If you have a newer model slow cooker, this will cook in 4-5 hours, as opposed to 6-7. Ingredients:
2 medium golden delicious apples, peeled, cored and sliced |
4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts |
salt |
fresh ground white pepper |
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4 cup french apple brandy (calvados) |
4 ounces havarti cheese, sliced |
chopped parsley |
Directions:
1. Spread apples in the bottom of a slow cooker.
2. Arrange chicken, overlapping pieces slightly, on top of apples.
3. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
4. Pour in brandy.
5. Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours.
6. Using a slotted spoon, lift chicken and apples to a small baking dish.
7. Pour cooking liquid into a small pan and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring often until liquid reduces (8 minutes).
8. Pour liquid over chicken.
9. Cover each chicken piece with a slice of cheese and broil in oven until cheese is bubbly (2 minutes).
10. Sprinkle with parsley.
