Ingredients

1.¼ cup red wine vinegar

2.6 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

3.2 teaspoons of Dijon mustard

4.1 teaspoon of dry mustard

5.4 tablespoons of honey

6.1/3 cup of olive oil

7.8 skinless, boneless chicken breasts

8.3 medium apples (use the sweet, crisp varieties such as Suncrisp, Braeburns, or Cortlands)

9.2 tablespoons of light margarine

10.¾ cup of dried cranberries

11.Salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken breasts for at least an hour, preferably overnight. The longer you marinate the chicken, the juicer it will be.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400-degrees.
  3. Grill the chicken on one side (an indoor or outdoor grill both work great!) just long enough to make a grill mark (about 1-3 minutes). For a more professional look, rotate the chicken 45-degrees to make a hatch-mark pattern. (Note: only grill ONE side of the chicken)
  4. Peel, core, and chop the apples. Sauté the fruit in the margarine over medium-high heat for 5-10 minutes, until they develop a golden brown color. Add the cranberries, mix, and remove from the heat—season with salt and pepper.
  5. Cut a pocket in the thick end of each breast and stuff with the apple mixture
  6. Place the breasts grilled-side up in a baking dish, top with any of the extra apple-cranberry mixture, and cover with foil
  7. Bake the chicken for 15 minutes, or until cooked through. Alternatively, you can refrigerate the chicken for up to 24 hours before baking.
