Here's a flavorful fall dish. I like to use flavorful, slightly tart green apples. I strongly recommend using cider instead of apple juice, too - it adds much more flavor. Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 apple, sliced |
1 cup apple cider |
1 onion, sliced thin |
1 clove garlic, minced |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons mustard (preferably dijon or other flavorful mustard) |
Directions:
1. Pound chicken breasts until each is about 3/4 inch thick. 2. Heat the oil in a large skillet and saute the chicken for about 3 minutes per side. 3. Add the apple, cider, onion, garlic, thyme, and salt. 4. Cover and simmer 6-8 minutes until chicken is cooked through and tender. 5. Remove the chicken, apple, and onion from the pan. 6. Bring the remaining sauce to a boil and cook 5 minutes or until slightly thickened. 7. Whisk in the mustard and serve over the chicken. |
