Honey-Mustard Chicken and Apples
Honey-Mustard Chicken and Apples

Fall is the best time to get some fresh apples and make this dinner. Since you're likely to get more apples than you need, try grilling some of them for a nice dessert.


Ingredients

8 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (2 to 2 1/2 pounds)

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 large onion, cut into large chunks

2 cooking apples (such as Cortland), cut into chunks

1 cup low-sodium chicken broth

2 to 3 tablespoons honey mustard

1 1/2 teaspoons unsalted butter, softened

1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

1 to 2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. 

Heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches if necessary, add the chicken, skin-side down, and cook until golden, about 6 minutes. Flip and cook 2 to 3 more minutes, then transfer to a plate. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the drippings. 

Add the onion and apples to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook until slightly softened, about 4 minutes. Mix the broth with the mustard, then add to the skillet and bring to a boil. Arrange the chicken, skin-side up, in the skillet. Transfer to the oven and roast until the chicken is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. 

Mix the butter and flour to form a paste. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the chicken, apples, and onion to plates. Bring the pan juices to a simmer, whisk in about half of the butter-flour mixture and boil to thicken, 2 minutes. Continue to cook, adding more of the butter-flour mixture as needed to make a slightly thick gravy. Season with salt and pepper. Pour over the chicken and sprinkle with parsley.
