Chicken, brie & raisins with apple cider sauce
Chicken, brie & raisins with apple cider sauce is a delicious dish that combines tender chicken, creamy brie cheese, sweet raisins, and a flavorful apple cider sauce. The chicken is typically cooked until golden brown, then topped with melted brie cheese, plump raisins, and a savory apple cider sauce made from reducing apple cider with herbs and spices. It’s a combination of sweet and savory flavors that complement each other perfectly.
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts boneless, skinless
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 oz brie cheese sliced
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1 cup apple cider
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional for thickening)
Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add the apple cider, chicken broth, dried thyme, and dried rosemary to the skillet. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.
- Add the raisins to the skillet and let them plump up in the sauce for a few minutes.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and top each breast with sliced brie cheese. Cover the skillet and let the cheese melt for a few minutes.
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix the cornstarch with a little water to create a slurry and stir it into the sauce. Cook for a few more minutes until thickened.
- Serve the chicken breasts with the apple cider sauce spooned over the top. Enjoy!
