Apple Butter Glazed Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Mix apple jelly, honey, mustard, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Brush chicken breasts with glaze.
• Place glazed chicken breasts on the preheated grill; cook, occasionally brushing chicken with more glaze, until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides and cook, flipping once, until nicely browned and cooked to 150 degrees F or desired doneness, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Set the chops aside and reserve the skillet.
• Pour the chicken stock into the skillet and scrape with a wooden spoon to lift any browned bits. Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until the stock is reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Whisk in the mustard and apple butter. Turn off the heat and continue whisking until the sauce coats the back of a spoon, about 1 minute. Season as desired with freshly cracked black pepper.

Steps:

• In the bowl of a medium slow cooker (3-quart), combine the apple butter, chicken stock, BBQ sauce, apple juice, maple syrup or honey, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt. Whisk to thoroughly combine. Add the cocktail franks, stirring to mostly submerge them in the sauce. Cover and cook on high until heated through, about 3 hours. Serve warm in the sauce.

Steps:

• Heat the apple butter, mustard, butter, sugar, celery seed and onion to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Remove from heat; cool.
• Place the chicken in a food storage bag. Pour half of the apple butter mixture over the chicken; reserve remaining mixture. Seal bag; smush around so the chicken gets thoroughly coated. Refrigerate 1 hour.
• Heat a grill pan over high heat. Brush off extra sauce from the chicken and discard. Cook chicken, in batches if necessary, turning occasionally, until browned, about 20 minutes. Continue cooking, brushing with reserved marinade, until chicken is cooked through, 15-25 minutes longer.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Heat oil in ovenproof baking dish and brown chicken on one side.
• Turn over and while browning the second side, place sage, thyme, salt and pepper on each piece.
• Spoon one tablespoon apple butter on each, and pour wine over so it is sitting in about 1/4" of wine (drink the rest).
• Cover and bake in oven for about 45-60 minutes.
• Remove chicken, leaving the applesauce and wine.
• Reduce sauce (simmer until thick and creamy).
• Drizzle over chicken, serve over rice or pasta.
