A dish that brings the comforting flavors of autumn right to your dinner table. With juicy chicken infused with the sweetness of apples and the tang of cranberries, this recipe is not just a meal; it's an experience that warms the heart and satisfies the palate.
Ingredients
Scale:
4 pieces Chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
2 tablespoons Olive oil
1 teaspoon Salt
1/2 teaspoon Pepper
1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary (or thyme), chopped
2 medium Apples (preferably Granny Smith), cored and sliced
1 cup Cranberries (fresh or frozen)
1 cup Chicken broth
2 tablespoons Honey
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large, oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper.
Place the chicken skin-side down in the skillet and sear for about 5-7 minutes, or until the skin is golden brown. Do not rush this part, as it enhances the flavor.
Flip the chicken and add the sliced apples, cranberries, chopped rosemary, chicken broth, and honey to the skillet.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the apples are tender.
Remove from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, and serve warm.
