Honeymustardchickenwithapples Recipes

Steps:

• Pan fry chicken in half of the butter just until no longer pink in the middle, turning once to ensure both sides are browned.
• Remove chicken from pan and keep in a warm place or cover with foil.
• Core and slice apples as desired. I like to use my apple slicer- looks like a wagon wheel with handles- and then slice each lengthwise to make them thinner. To peel or not to peel- hehehehe- up to you. Likewise, red or green- the choice is yours. I like peel on and red for color!
• Add the rest of the butter, apples and thyme and fry until apples are as crisp or tender as you like.
• Pour apples over chicken and keep warm.
• Deglaze the pan with wine, cider or juice scraping all the yummy bits off the bottom.
• Add the cream- could use reduced fat sour cream or reduced fat or nonfat yogurt to reduce fat/calories. Yogurt will and a nice 'tang' to the sauce.
• Cook until slightly thickened.
• Return the chicken and apple mixture to the pan to make sure apples and chicken are nice and warm.
• When you are satisfied with the temperature of the dish, serve and enjoy!
• Experiment with your favorite herbs and seasonings- I have not tried this but I think a pinch of cinnamon might be really yummy here or maybe some nutmeg -- hmm --.
• Let me know what you think.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place the sweet potato, red potato, red onion, Brussels sprouts, green beans, and carrots on the baking sheet in separate piles.
• Drizzle everything with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Rub the seasoning into the vegetables until evenly coated and spread flat on the baking sheet, keeping the vegetables separate. Set aside.
• In a small bowl, combine the mustard, honey, garlic, salt, and pepper, and whisk until smooth. Set aside.
• Place the chicken thighs skin-side down in a greased cast-iron skillet. Season with salt and pepper, then brush generously with the honey-mustard sauce. Flip the chicken thighs over and repeat, seasoning with salt and pepper, then brushing with the rest of the honey-mustard sauce.
• Place the vegetables and the chicken in the oven on separate racks. Bake for 30 minutes or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) . (Optional: Remove the vegetables once cooked and broil the chicken for 1-2 minutes, or until the skin crisps up.)
• Let everything cool, then distribute into resealable containers, mixing up the combination of vegetables so that you get something a little different each day.
• Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 days.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Chop any large potatoes in half.
• Place potatoes in the bottom of a slow cooker. Add chicken thighs on top of potatoes, and spread apples and onion over top.
• Mix chicken broth, honey, applesauce, garlic, salt, cinnamon, cumin, and pepper together in a bowl; pour over chicken mixture.
• Cook until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 4 to 6 hours on Low, or about 3 hours on High. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Remove chicken thighs from the slow cooker and place, skin-side up, on the prepared baking sheet.
• Broil in the preheated oven until skin is crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve with potatoes, apples, onions, and sauce.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients (except for chicken) into a large plastic baggy. Combine well. Add chicken breasts- coat well.
• Place chicken breasts on hot grill. Grill each breast for 6-7 minutes each side.
• Remove from grill, slice and enjoy!
