Chicken And Apple Stuffing Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Whisk together half-and-half, egg, and sage in a bowl.
• Melt butter in a 12-inch nonstick, oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add onion, celery, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until onion begins to soften, about 4 minutes. Pour in chicken broth and then stir in stuffing mix. Add chopped apples, dried cherries, and 1/4 cup chopped pecans, then remove from heat. Stir in half-and-half mixture and gently even out the contents of the skillet.
• Season chicken cutlets with paprika, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Place on top of the stuffing mixture and press down into the skillet contents until the tops of the chicken are even with the other ingredients. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup chopped pecans over the top and lightly spray chicken with cooking spray.
• Place skillet in the preheated oven and bake until chicken juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pour the milk into a shallow bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and water. Place the bread crumbs in a shallow dish or on a plate. Dip the chicken breast halves into the milk, then into the egg, then press into the bread crumbs to coat. Place on a plate, and set aside.
• Prepare the stuffing mix according to the package directions, but substituting apple juice for the water. When bringing the juice and butter to a boil, add the diced apple with peel to the pan. Stir in the stuffing mix until the liquid is absorbed. Transfer the stuffing to a baking dish, and top with the pieces of the remaining apple. Place the chicken breasts on top of the stuffing, and cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the chicken juices run clear.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

• In a skillet, brown chicken in oil over medium-high heat, adding honey as soon as the chicken hits the pan and starts sizzling! Toss to coat chicken. Remove as soon as chicken is cooked on all sides.
• Meanwhile, prepare stuffing according to package directions.
• Spread pie filling in a greased 8-in. x 8-in. square baking dish. Stir in 1 teaspoons cinnamon if not already included in pie filling. *Note: At this juncture, you may want to remove apples from their sauce and dice them up, then return. I find that though the apple flavor blends nicely, the whole apple slices frequently overpower the other components of the dish.
• Add chicken over the top of the pie filling, and then add the stuffing on top.
• Cover and bake for 25 minutes. Uncover; bake 5-8 minutes longer or just until top of stuffing browns just a bit and pie filling starts to bubble.
