# What You'll Need:
→ Stuffing & Chicken
01 -
4 boneless chicken breasts
02 -
1 teaspoon of kosher salt
03 -
1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
04 -
1 Honeycrisp apple, sliced into thin moon shapes
05 -
4 ounces brie cheese, sliced thin while cold
→ Glaze with Apple Cider
06 -
1 cup of apple cider or juice
07 -
2 tablespoons maple syrup
08 -
1/2 tablespoon garlic, minced (about 2 cloves)
09 -
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
10 -
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
11 -
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
# Preparation Steps:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Either line a baking sheet with parchment or grease up a broil-friendly skillet with nonstick spray.
02 -
Using a horizontal cut, butterfly each chicken breast. Don’t cut all the way through. Sprinkle the inside with salt and pepper, add 7-9 apple slices, and top with 3-4 slices of brie. Close them up snugly.
03 -
Place the stuffed chicken breasts on the prepared pan and bake them for 25-30 minutes, stopping just before they’re fully done.
04 -
Throw all the glaze ingredients into a small saucepan on medium heat. Let it bubble gently until it thickens, about 12-15 minutes.
05 -
Switch your oven to broil. Coat the baked chicken with the glaze using a brush, and broil for 10-12 minutes or until a thermometer reads 165°F inside. Serve hot with extra glaze on top.
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Keeping the brie chilled makes slicing it simpler.
02 -
Stay nearby while broiling so the glaze doesn’t burn.
03 -
You’ll need around 7-9 apple slices and 3-4 brie slices for each chicken.
