Ingredients

  • 1 T. olive oil
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 4 turkey bacon slices, diced
  • 1/2 apple, diced
  • 1 t. thyme
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup apple cider
  • 1 T. butter

Preparation

Step 1

In a skillet, heat the olive oil. Add the chicken, salt and pepper to taste. Brown the chicken on both sides, about 5 minutes each side. Remove chicken and keep warm.

Add the onion and turkey bacon to the skillet. Cook till onion is translucent and bacon has browned a bit, about 5 minutes. Now add the apple and thyme, and salt and pepper again to taste. When apples are browned and soft, add the broth and cider. Turn the heat up and, with a wire whisk, cook the sauce till it thickens up, stirring frequently. Add the butter and whisk till melted in. Return the chicken back to the skillet for about 2 minutes, thoroughly coating in sauce. Serve with more sauce on top of the chicken.
