1 Apple, cored and thinly sliced
1 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
1 pack Chicken Thighs
1 sprig Fresh Thyme (optional)
1 tsp Whole Grain Mustard
¼ cup Chicken Broth
½ Tbsp Olive Oil
½ cup Apple Cider
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Pat chicken thighs dry, then season generously with sea salt and pepper on both sides. Heat drizzle olive oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken, skin side down, until skin is browned and crispy. Flip and cook on other side 1 minute, then remove chicken from skillet and set aside on plate.
Add sliced apples to skillet and toss in rendered fat. Sauté several minutes, until apples are soft and slightly caramelized.
Add apple cider vinegar to skillet to deglaze, scraping any browned bits from bottom of pan. Add mustard, apple cider, and chicken broth, stirring to mix completely.
Nestle chicken thighs between apple slices. Transfer skillet to oven and braise 20-25 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and reaches 165 degrees, using an instant read thermometer.
