How to Make Apple Chicken

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Season chicken breasts generously with thyme, salt, and pepper.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken breasts on all sides for about 2-3 minutes per side.
4. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
5. Add remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet. Add sliced onions and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
6. Add sliced apples to the skillet and cook until slightly softened and lightly golden, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
7. Pour in apple cider, bring to a simmer, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
8. Return chicken breasts to the skillet.
9. Cover the skillet and transfer to the preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside.
10. Remove skillet from oven. In a small bowl, whisk together apple cider vinegar and cornstarch until smooth.
11. Pour the cornstarch mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened and become glossy (about 1 minute).
12. Transfer the chicken and apples to a serving platter and spoon the sauce over the top.
13. Serve immediately and enjoy!
