I am not really sure where the idea for this meal came from. I was just walking aimlessly around the grocery store, surprise surprise, and I spotted honey crisp apples. I absolutely LOVE honey crisp apples. They have the perfect amount of sweetness and are the perfect snack! So I grabbed a few apples and moseyed on through the grocery. I ended up with a few more ingredients that turned into Apple stuffed chicken breast. Never stuffed chicken exactly like this, but it turned out quite delicious I must say!
Apple Stuffed Chicken Breast
gluten fee, dairy free
Ingredients:
2 boneless skinless chicken breast
1/2 cup diced onions
1/2 diced apple (I used honey crisp)
2 T gluten free bread crumbs
1 T diced jalapeƱo (you can adjust for hotness)
1/4 t paprika
1/4 t cumin
1/4 t garlic powder
1/4 t oregano
a dash of crushed red pepper
1/2 cup olive oil
1 1/2 T worcestershire sauce (Lee and Perrins in GF)
1 T red wine vinegar
dash of salt and pepper
Preheat your oven to 375°.
Dice your onion.
Core and dice your apple
Add your onions, apples, breadcrumbs, and jalapeƱos in a medium bowl.
Stir to combine.
Add in your spices and stir to evenly distribute the spices.
Using a sharp knife, cut a slit lengthwise down your chicken breasts. Be careful not to cut all the way though the breast. You are creating a pocket for the stuffing.
Stuff the chicken breasts with your apple stuffing and place in a small baking dish sprinkled with olive oil.
In a small bowl, add worcestershire, olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper.
Whisk to combine completely
Pour the mixture over your stuffed chicken breast.
Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink.
Caramelized Brussels Sprouts
gluten free, dairy free
Ingredients:
1 pound of brussels sprouts
1/3 cup diced onion
2 T dark brown sugar
2 T olive oil
salt and pepper
Preheat oven to 375°.
Wash and trim your Brussels. Cut off the tough stem end and then slice in half lengthwise. Discard any dark outer leaves.
Place your Brussels in a medium baking dish
Add your onions and brown sugar.
Pour you olive oil over the top and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Bake in the oven for 45 minutes or until soft. Stirring occasionally.
I added a side of brown rice with this dish and was the perfect fall meal for the two of us!
Thanks Y'all!
