How to Make Baked Apple Chicken
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly grease or spray a 9x13 inch casserole dish.
- Arrange 1.5 lbs of bone-in, skin-on chicken pieces (thighs, breasts, or a combination) in the prepared casserole dish.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 medium apple (peeled, cored, and diced), 1/2 cup chicken broth, 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Pour the apple mixture evenly over the chicken pieces.
- Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork. Larger pieces may take longer.
- Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
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!
