How to Make Applesauce Chicken

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a little kick!).
  3. Place 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a baking dish.
  4. Pour the applesauce mixture over the chicken, ensuring each breast is coated.
  5. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  6. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the glaze is slightly caramelized. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  7. Serve immediately over rice with sauteed green beans for a complete and delicious meal.
