Equipment

  • Large baking sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • sharp knife
  • Saucepan
  • Pastry brush

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 2 honeycrisp apples thinly sliced
  • 4 oz Brie cheese thinly sliced
  • ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 cup apple juice
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp dried thyme
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
  • Place chicken breasts on a cutting board and slice horizontally without cutting all the way through so each piece opens like a book
  • Lay chicken open on the baking sheet and season the inside with garlic salt and pepper
    Four raw chicken breasts seasoned with spices are arranged on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Layer apple slices on one side of each chicken breast and top with Brie slices
    Four raw chicken breasts are stuffed with sliced apples and cheese, seasoned with pepper, and arranged on a parchment-lined baking tray.
  • Fold the empty side of the chicken over the filling to close and bake for 25 minutes

  • While chicken bakes make the glaze by combining maple syrup, apple juice, garlic, thyme, and Dijon mustard in a saucepan over medium-high heat
    A frying pan on a marble surface contains oil, what appears to be minced garlic, small chunks of yellow paste, and scattered dried herbs or seeds.
  • Let the glaze bubble and thicken for 10 to 15 minutes then reduce heat to low and stir occasionally
  • After 25 minutes remove chicken from the oven and brush the glaze generously over each breast
  • Broil for 10 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and caramelized

  • Serve warm with mashed potatoes and garnish with parsley if desired

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days
  • If the glaze becomes too thick add 1 tablespoon of apple juice to thin it
  • For a spicy twist add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the glaze
  • Thinly slice the apples and cheese for even melting and flavor distribution
