Apple Cider Chicken

I love this time of year for all the fall ingredients and flavors that are now available. Apple Cider is a seasonal favorite and pantry staple during the fall months – not just for drinking hot or cold, but for using in both sweet and savory applications.

This Apple Cider Chicken is made on the stove top where apple cider is used to braise chicken along with fresh apples, onions, spices and a splash of white wine.

To serve, my family enjoyed this over wild rice pilaf, however creamy mashed potatoes would work perfectly too!
