There are a few tips to cooking this dish. First, I usually slice up the apples while the chicken is frying. This way, they don’t discolor. It’s important to only cook the apples for about 12 minutes. That’s why they are not added to the pan until the chicken is 2 minutes away from being cooked. If you don’t do this, they apples will be too mushy. You want a slight snap or crunch when you bit into them. It is equally important not to stir the sauce when you add it as the vinegar needs to cook off. If you don’t do this, there will be an unpleasant, vinegar, acidic taste to the sauce.

- Combine the corn starch, apple cider vinegar, mustard, honey, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Whisk until it’s well combined.
- Season the chicken, on both sides, with salt and pepper. Dredge it in the bread crumbs and set it aside on a plate.
- Heat the olive oil in a nonstick pan. Place the chicken in and cook until it’s golden brown on one side. This should take 4 minutes or so. Flip the chicken and allow it to cook for another 2 minutes. Add the apples and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
- Add in the broth. Allow it to simmer until the chicken and apples are fork tender. This should take about 10 – 12 minutes.
- Place the chicken and apples on a serving plate. Whisk the cider mixture and add it to the same pan. Cook it over medium high heat until slightly thick and bubbly. Do not stir or whisk the sauce as the vinegar needs to cook off. This should take 1 to 2 minutes. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and serve.
Enjoy your honey mustard apple chicken.
