Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon butter
4 (6 ounce) bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 medium apples, cored and thinly sliced (such as Autumn Glory®)
1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
1 ½ teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
½ teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon poultry seasoning
¼ teaspoon black pepper
½ cup chicken broth
¼ cup heavy whipping cream
2 teaspoons honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and butter in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and add to the hot skillet, skin-side down, leaving at least 1 inch between the breasts to ensure even cooking and browning. Cook until skin is browned, about 6 minutes. Turn and cook an additional 6 minutes until browned on both sides. Transfer chicken breasts to a plate.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet and stir in apples and onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes. Season with sage, rosemary, thyme, salt, poultry seasoning, and pepper; stir to combine.
  • While apples are cooking, whisk together chicken broth, whipping cream, honey, and mustard in a small bowl. Pour broth mixture in with the seasoned apples and onions and gently scrape browned bits from the bottom using a wooden spoon. Slide chicken breasts back into the skillet, nestling them between onions and apples.
  • Transfer skillet to the preheated oven and cook until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
