Brie and Apple Chicken Breasts Ingredients

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves	1 -2 tablespoons flour
1 small apple cored and thinly sliced	4 slices Brie cheese
4 tablespoon butter	2 cups apple cider
1/2 teaspoon each salt and freshly ground black pepper	2 cups chicken broth

Instructions for Brie and Apple Chicken Breasts

Preheat the oven to 450F. Warm 1 tablespoon butter in a large, non-stick saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the apples and saute until softened. Set the saute pan aside because you will need it again. Tuck a slice of Brie and several slices of apple into the pocket on the underside of the chicken breasts between the breast and the tenderloin.

Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Pat a little flour onto both sides of each chicken breast.

In the saute pan, warm 1 tablespoon butter over high heat. When the butter foams add the chicken breasts and brown them on both sides. Transfer the chicken to a sheetpan, stuffed-side-down, and put it into the oven for 12 to 14 minutes. While the chicken is cooking, make the sauce. Pour the cider and broth into the saut pan and boil it over high heat until reduced to about 1 1/2 cups. Swirl in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper. To serve, divide the chicken among 4 plates and pour a little sauce over each.

the version of 'big oven' that was downloaded from the Team Diets website calls for meatballs, not chicken. Just seems a little odd......

This was GREAT! For a house of picky eaters this went over very well. Next time I will add more Brie and thicken my sauce a little bit. Overall very good!

This recipe just oozes flavor. The sauce is a perfect complement. I added extra brie and apples. Two 10 year old boys gave this recipe 5 stars.

I was looking for something different to do with chicken. This one qualifies and tastes wonderful. It makes for a great presentation. A little more brie would be good but then I really like brie. My only suggestion would be to stuff the chicken instead of placing the apples between the loin and breast. Mostly because the loin on most breasts does not cover enough and the apples and brie leak out easily and also it is sometimes hard to get chicken breasts with the loin attached (for a good price).

The main ingredient is supposed to be chicken and not beatballs.. Line number one says 4 meatballs instead of chicken breasts...

Very good -- much sweeter than I thought (the reduction of the Apple Cider, plus the pre-softened apples made it quite sweet). The brie added a nice savory finish. Cooking time in recipe is quite precise, and worked perfectly for me. Chicken breasts remained juicy; will be making this again.

I substituted cheddar cheese for Brie and it was very good! The sauce enhanced the dish nicely!

Wow. A keeper... this will definitely go into my favorites. The chicken stays very moist, and the flavor of the sauce is the perfect complement. I'm all out of medals; otherwise, I'd give you one for this dish.
