Apple & Brie Stuffed Chicken Breasts image

Chicken breasts are stuffed with apples, Brie and herbs; topped with a warm cider sauce, carmelized onions and tender cinnamon-apples. This is a deliciously different departure from bland baked chicken.

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 23

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, trimmed fat
1 large apple, peeled, cored and diced (Fuji, Empire, or Braeburn)
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh sage, chopped
3 tablespoons dry breadcrumbs
1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper
4 ounces brie cheese, rind removed and divided into 4 even slices
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1 egg
olive oil
1 cup apple cider or 1 cup apple juice
1/4 cup chicken broth
4 fresh thyme sprigs
2 yellow onions, cut in half lengthwise and sliced thin
3 garlic cloves, crushed
1 apple, peeled, cored and sliced thin (Fuji, Empire, or Braeburn)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup white wine
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 dash ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Wash the chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Transfer the chicken to a clean cutting board. Lightly press each chicken breast flat with one hand; use a sharp knife to cut a slit horizontally along one edge of the breast, cutting nearly to the opposite side but not all the way through. Open it so it forms two flaps, attached at the center, like a butterfly. Set aside - keep refrigerated.
  • To a small mixing bowl, add the diced apple, lemon juice, lemon zest, sage, 3 tablespoons of bread crumbs, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • Stuff each breast with about a quarter of the apple mixture and 1 slice of Brie; close the flap, press it down firmly, and set the chicken aside.
  • Transfer the stuffed chicken breasts to a baking sheet. (There is no need to seal them around the edges.) Sprinkle the breasts with salt and pepper.
  • Combine the remaining bread crumbs, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste in a shallow dish. Lightly beat the egg with a fork in another dish.
  • One at a time, hold the chicken breast together and dip in the beaten egg - coat on both sides. Dredge in the bread crumb mixture, turning it over to coat well. Repeat until done.
  • Next, drizzle 2 teaspoons of olive oil into a large heavy-bottom skillet; set over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts; brown on each side (about 2 - 3 minutes per side).
  • Transfer the chicken breasts to a large casserole dish; add 1/2 cup of the apple cider/juice, the chicken broth, and the thyme sprigs. Place in the oven and bake for 15 - 20 minutes, or until no longer pink inside.
  • While the chicken is baking, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté for about 15 - 20 minutes, stirring often. Cook until they turn deep golden brown. To the onions add the garlic, sliced apples, cinnamon and wine and cook for about 5 more minutes, or until the liquid evaporates. Cover and keep warm.
  • Transfeer the chicken to a warmed serving platter; cover with foil to keep warm.
  • Whisk together the remaining apple cider/juice, the mustard, and the cinnamon; bring to a boil in a small sauce pan on high heat for 3 minutes until the sauce is reduced and slightly thickened.
  • Spoon the carmelized onions and cinnamon apples, followed by the sauce over the chicken. Serve immediately.

CHICKEN BREASTS STUFFED WITH APPLES & CHEDDAR



Chicken Breasts Stuffed With Apples & Cheddar image

I have been meaning to give this elegant sounding chicken dish for years and have decided to share it here even though I haven't tried it yet. I originally clipped this from a magazine years ago and thought it would be a lovely choice for a romantic dinner.

Categories     Chicken

Time 45m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (pounded to a 1/4-inch thickness with a mallet)
1/2 cup cooking apple (Golden Delicious or Granny Smith recommended)
2 tablespoons sharp cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon fine dry breadcrumb
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/4 cup dry white wine or 1/4 cup apple cider
water, as needed
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
fresh parsley, chopped, garnish
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • If you haven't already pounded your chicken breast halves, do so now- they should be 1/4" thin; season with salt and pepper to taste on both sides. Peel your apples unless you prefer them to have the skin on.
  • Combine apple chunks,cheese, and bread crumbs in a small bowl.
  • Divide the apple mixture into two portions and place one portion on top of each piece of chicken.
  • Roll up chicken into a bundle, using toothpicks to secure if needed.
  • Melt butter in a skillet, then brown the chicken briefly on both sides in the butter- just a few minutes each side to brown but not cook all the way through yet.
  • Once browned, add wine and 1/4 cup of water.
  • Cover pan and let simmer 15-20 minutes on medium-low heat- until chicken is no longer pink and completely cooked through.
  • Remove cooked chicken from the pan using a slotted spoon and set on two plates.
  • Remove toothpicks.
  • Whisk together 1 Tbsp of water and the cornstarch well and add to the pan juices.
  • Whisk until blended and cook and stir until thickened slightly (you may need to raise the heat a bit); test for seasoning and add more salt and pepper if needed.
  • Ladle over chicken and sprinkle parsley over tops as a garnish.

CHICKEN WITH APPLES AND STUFFING



Chicken With Apples and Stuffing image

Originally a recipe from Taste of Home's "Five Ingredient Cookbook," but I have done much tweaking to get it just right. This one is so yummy and filling, and the flavors blend surprisingly nicely. If you can find apple pie filling with cinnamon already added, you can just use that. Usually I can't find it at my store. Also I frequently cannot find 6 oz. packages of stuffing mix, so I just make about 2 cups of stuffing, or a whole box, and put the extra on the side. This recipe was originally for pork, so you can also substitute 6 boneless pork loin chops for the chicken. We are more chicken fans at my house! You can also leave the chicken breasts whole if you prefer. I just find it blends nicely with them chopped.

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, chopped in bite-size pieces
1 teaspoon kosher salt, to taste
1 teaspoon black pepper, to taste
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, to taste
1 -2 tablespoon honey, to taste
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 (6 ounce) package seasoned stuffing mix, flavor of choice
1 (21 ounce) can apple pie filling
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Chop chicken, season with salt, pepper and 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, rubbing dry spices in thoroughly.
  • 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.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups milk
3 eggs
1 tablespoon water
1 cup dry bread crumbs
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 Red Delicious apple, cored and diced
1 (8 ounce) package dry bread stuffing mix
2 cups apple juice, or as needed
2 tablespoons butter, or as needed
1 Red Delicious apple - peeled, cored and diced

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.

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.

Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the chicken has reached 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the oven.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check if the chicken is cooked by piercing it with a fork. If the juices run clear, the chicken is cooked.
  • To prevent the chicken from drying out, baste it with the pan juices every 20 minutes or so while it's roasting.
  • If you're short on time, you can use store-bought puff pastry instead of making your own.
  • Feel free to experiment with different fillings. Some other great options include sausage, spinach, and feta; mushrooms, onions, and Gruyère; or ham, Swiss, and apples.

Conclusion:

This chicken stuffed with walnuts, apples, and brie is a delicious and easy-to-make main course that is perfect for a special occasion. The combination of sweet apples, savory walnuts, and creamy brie is sure to please everyone at your table. Serve it with roasted potatoes and vegetables for a complete meal.
