Apple-Stuffed Boneless Chicken with Maple-Dijon Sauce

It’s no secret that I love entertaining, but there is only so much time in a day to get everything done. That’s one of the reasons why I love one-pan dinners — they’re usually really easy. This one is a real showstopper I love to wow my guests with. Apple-Stuffed Boneless Chicken with Maple-Dijon Sauce takes just 10 minutes of hands-on prep and another 45 minutes in the oven. The clever folks at The Bare Bird have taken out all the hard work by removing the bones to ensure a quick and even cook. Have I also mentioned that The Bare Bird is proudly free-range and antibiotic-free? That means The Bare Bird’s chooks never receive any kind of antibiotics at any stage in their lifecycle. Now that’s something to crow about!
