Chicken with apples and honey in the oven is great for any feast or family dinner. Slices of apples will add a unique fruit aroma to the chicken and a pleasant taste. The result is a very tasty and appetizing dish. Honey gives chicken meat a piquant sweet taste, and also makes an appetizing crust. For the recipe, you can use chicken fillet, as well as wings, drumsticks or thighs. Choose sour-sweet kinds of apples. Such apples will provide the necessary sweetness, but have a light sourness and dense flesh, so they are ideal for cooking salads and baking with meat in the oven.

How to Make Apple Honey Chicken

Steps

1. Wash chicken thighs and dry from excess moisture with paper towels. Rub the meat with a mixture of salt and ground seasonings from all sides. Let's leave the chicken thighs for 30 minutes to marinate. Thanks to the seasonings, baked honey chicken, the recipe for which I recommend you to cook, will be very fragrant.

2. Let’s make a marinade. In a deep ware, combine honey, olive oil and lemon juice. Mix the mixture until it has a homogeneous consistency.

3. Wash the apples, remove the core with seeds and cut them into slices.

4. In a heat-resistant baking form, transfer marinated pieces of chicken meat and add slices of apples.

5. Pour meat and fruits with honey marinade with olive oil and lemon juice.

6. Cover the form with food foil and send apple chicken thighs in a heated oven up to 200 degrees. After 45-50 minutes, the chicken with apples and honey will be ready. Let’s check the readiness of the meat by sticking a knife blade into it. If clear juice flows out of the chicken, it is ready.
