I created a fantastic dish by combining my two preferences, apple crisp and cheesecake. My family and friends really like it. Enjoy!

Total Time: 50 mins
Servings: 4
Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  1. ⅔ cup apple juice
  2. ⅔ cup Pinot Grigio wine
  3. 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  4. ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  5. ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  6. ½ teaspoon herbes de Provence
  7. 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  8. 8 medium boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  9. salt and ground black pepper to taste
  10. ½ cup onion slices
  11. 4 medium Apples, raw
  12. ⅔ cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Combine apple juice, white wine, Dijon mustard, garlic, ginger, and herbes de Provence in a small container; set aside.
  2. Melt butter in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat and brown chicken thighs, about 3 minutes per side. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle onion slices over chicken thighs, add apple slices, and pour cooking liquid on top. Bring mixture to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to a simmer.
  3. Simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken, apples, and onions to a serving dish and keep warm.
  4. Bring liquid to a boil over medium-high heat. Allow liquid to boil and reduce down to about 1 1/2 cups, stirring frequently, about 5 minutes. Stir in heavy cream and cook until sauce has thickened and is well blended.
  5. Pour sauce over chicken, apples, and onions and serve.

Easy directions that I could follow, quick for a weeknight meal, loved using my herbs de provance for the first time. Tasted good, great for leftovers. I needed better attention paid to the sauce and wanted to know how thin or thick the sauce should have been.

used light cream, less butter. Excellent flavors. Had lemon slices available to those that wanted it at table.
