Delvarva Chicken
Serves 8
Serving Size: 30 ounces cooked chicken with 1/2 cup sauce and apples
Ingredients:
1/3 cup flour
3 teaspoons salt
1/2 to 1 teaspoon white pepper
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons dried sage
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3 tablespoons canola oil
4 medium-size unpeeled Granny Smith applies, sliced thinly
2 cups applie cider
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup nonfat milk
Directions:
Mix the flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and sage in a shallow pan. Dredge chicken through the flour mixture. Heat the oil in an extra-large heavy skillet; add the chicken pieces and brown each side for 5 minutes. Add the apple slices and cider; simmer, uncovered, until apples are tender, about 20 minutes. The cider should be reduced by half the original volume.
Remove the apple slices and the chicken to a deep serving platter, cover and keep warm.
Blend the cornstarch into the milk until smooth; pour into the pan with the applie sauce. Increase the heat; stir until sauce thickens. Adjust the sage, garlic powder and pepper to taste. Pour the sauce over the chicken and apples.
