About this Recipe

Chicken and apples unite in this fall-inspired dinner, and the flavor is fueled by our aromatic Poultry Rub. It's like autumn collided with your taste buds – Sage, Thyme, and Marjoram perfectly compliment the chicken and apple pairing. Both delicious and comforting served alongside your choice of rice or mashed potatoes, this braised chicken is just right for any occasion.

This one-pan wonder is pantry-powered and gluten-free. What more could you ask for? 🍗🍎🍂

Instructions

1
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear.
2
In a bowl, mix the Poultry Rub and Pacific Flake Sea Salt. Season both sides of the chicken thighs with this mixture.
3
In a large skillet or braising pan, melt the butter over medium-high heat.
4
Add the seasoned chicken thighs to the pan, skin side down. Sear for about 4 minutes until the skin is golden brown and crispy. Flip the thighs and sear for an additional 3 minutes. 
5
In the same pan, add onions and apples and sauté for a couple minutes until wilted. 
6
Add the grainy mustard and apple juice to the pan and let the mixture come to a simmer. 
7
Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover the pan with a lid and let the chicken and apples simmer in the flavorful liquid for about 25-30 minutes. The chicken should be fully cooked and tender. 
8
For a thicker sauce, increase the heat to medium-high and let the braising liquid in the pan reduce for about 5-7 minutes until it thickens, pour the reduced sauce over the chicken and apples to serve.
