Ingredients

1/2 cup sweet apple cider

1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch

Salt

Freshly ground black pepper

1 tablespoon honey

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1/2 cup flour, for dredging

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 small unpeeled apples, cored and cut into eighths

1/2 cup chicken broth

Fresh parsley for garnish

Directions

apple cider, cornstarch, mustard, honey, salt and pepper in a bowl. Set aside. Salt the chicken well and dust in flour. Shake off the excess.

In a large non-stick skillet, heat the oil on medium to medium high heat. Once the oil is hot add the chicken breasts to the pan. Cook until well browned on one side, about 3-4 minutes. Turn chicken, add apples, and cook until the chicken has browned on the other side.

Add chicken broth and cider mixture to the pan and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down to low, cover the pot and simmer until chicken is tender, about 15 minutes.

With slotted spoon, remove chicken and apples to serving plates. Increase the heat of the pan to high and simmer the sauce for a minute or two until it thickens. Spoon sauce over chicken and apples and sprinkle with parsley. Serve with rice or noodles.
