How to Make Apple Stuffed Chicken Breasts

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the diced apple, breadcrumbs, onion, celery, sage, melted butter, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  3. Butterfly each chicken breast by slicing horizontally almost all the way through, creating a pocket.
  4. Spoon the apple stuffing evenly into the chicken breasts, dividing it among the four.
  5. Place the stuffed chicken breasts in a baking dish.
  6. Pour the chicken broth into the bottom of the baking dish.
  7. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork.
  8. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
