Chicken breast with apples
Description
The preparation is very simple. 1. First of all, deal with the chicken breast. There's no need to cut it; it can remain on the bone. The marinade will give the meat special tenderness, so rub it with sour cream or mayonnaise, then add onion, spices, and salt to taste. 2. Let the chicken breast marinate for 1–2 hours; poultry marinates quite quickly. 3. While the chicken is waiting, prepare the apples. Many people prefer to use them with the skin on, as it adds visual appeal to the finished dish. Slice the fruit into small, thin wedges. 4. After an hour, take out the chicken. Make several shallow cuts on the breast (preferably symmetrically), spaced slightly apart—these will hold the apple slices. 5. Wrap the entire package in foil and place it in the oven. Usually, half an hour is enough. 6. Then unwrap the chicken to allow a delicious crust to form, and leave it in the oven for another 15 minutes. The result will be a dish worthy of even a festive table.
