Manischewitz Apple Chicken takes a bit of time in the oven, but it’s well worth it! The chicken cooks up ultra-tender. Plus, the prep time is only 10 minutes! Not to mention, this recipe is gluten-free and low-carb for a healthy family meal. This dish is great for either Rosh Hashanah or Sukkot because it freezes and rewarms easily. Serve with the apple-sweet pan sauce.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Drizzle oil over the bottom of a nine- by 13-inch roasting pan.
Arrange a flat layer of onion slices. Top that with a flat layer of the chicken cutlets.
Sprinkle kosher salt and black pepper evenly over the chicken.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the apple butter, white wine vinegar, and sage. Pour evenly over the chicken.
Top with diced apples. Cover. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 90 minutes or until a thermometer inserted in the center registers 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
For serving, gently remove the apple butter from the chicken and lift out the chicken pieces onto a separate plate. Stir the remains in the pan (sauce, apples and onion). This creates the sauce. Pour a scoop of sauce over each serving of chicken and enjoy!
Notes:
If freezing, freeze AFTER cooking. Reheat in a 350 degree Fahrenheit oven until heated through.
