🍎 Apple & Brie Stuffed Chicken

🔸Ingredients

* 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

* 1 apple, thinly sliced

* 4 oz Brie cheese, sliced

* 1–2 tbsp olive oil

* 1 tbsp Dijon mustard

* 1 tbsp maple syrup

* 2 cloves garlic, minced

* 1 tsp dried thyme

* Salt, to taste

* Black pepper, to taste

🔸Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Carefully cut a pocket into the thickest part of each chicken breast.

3. Stuff each breast with apple slices and Brie.

4. Mix Dijon mustard, maple syrup, garlic, thyme, a little salt, and pepper.

5. Brush the mixture over the chicken.

6. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet and sear the chicken for 2–3 minutes per side.

7. Transfer to the oven and bake for about 18–25 minutes, depending on thickness, until the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) internally.

8. Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.☺️😘

💡Tip: For a lower-sugar version, use just 1–2 teaspoons of maple syrup or leave it out—the apple gives natural sweetness.
