ingredients
Chicken:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 Honeycrisp apple, sliced `
- 1/3 of a small wheel of Brie
ingredients
Maple Glaze:
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 sprig of fresh thyme (or 1/2 tsp dried thyme)
- 2 heaping teaspoons minced garlic
- salt and pepper, to taste
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Step 2
Lay the chicken breasts flat and carefully butterfly each breast, making an incision about 3/4 of the way through. Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper.
Step 3
In a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter until it is frothy. Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and sear for approximately 3 minutes on each side. Once seared, remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the apple slices and Brie cheese slices, arranging them between the butterflied chicken breasts. Secure the filling with kitchen twine or toothpicks if desired.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, combine the maple syrup, olive oil, thyme, minced garlic, salt, and pepper for the glaze. Whisk the ingredients until thoroughly combined. Use a pastry brush to generously coat both stuffed chicken pieces with the glaze.
Step 6
Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake the chicken for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Allow the outer edges to brown and crisp slightly.
Step 7
Once cooked, remove the skillet from the oven. Serve the Apple and Brie Chicken with Maple Glaze alongside your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, a fresh salad, or a side of wild rice.
