Grilled Chicken with Apples and Honey

  
 As you know I love finding new recipes and better yet is when I don't have to search for them myself.  

One of the great advantages of when you purchase a health and fitness bundle pack (a.k.a. a challenge pack) from teambeachbody.com is that you get a free 30 day trial to the Club Membership that is available. Well I have to tell you I am so happy I got that free trial when I did because honestly I would not have paid for the upgrade!! Why I am so thankful for the membership is because it gave me access to a super cool feature on the teambeachbody.com website - the MEAL PLANNING WIZARD!! Yep, that is right the wizard does the work for you. AWESOME!! So that is where this particular recipe comes from, a suggestion from teambeachbody.com.  



Grilled Chicken with Apples and Honey

Ingredients...
1/4 cup white wine or low sodium chicken broth
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
2 teaspoons raw honey
1 dash sea salt
4 teaspoon olive oil, divided use
4 (4 oz) raw chicken breasts, boneless, skinless
4 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, thinly sliced
1/2 medium onion, thinly sliced

Directions...
1. Preheat Grill or broiler
2. Combine wine, mustard, honey, and salt in a small bowl, whisk to blend. 
Set aside
3. Brush chicken breasts evenly with 1 teaspoon olive oil
4. Grill or broil chicken for 5 minutes on each side or until chicken is no longer pink in the middle and juices run clear. Set Aside.
5. While chicken is cooking, heat remaining 3 teaspoons oil in medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. 
6. Add apples, onion, and wine mixture; cook, stirring frequently for 8 to 10 minutes or until apples are tender and liquid thickens slightly to sauce consistency.
7. Serve apples over chicken

Viola dinner is served!! 

We served out chicken with steamed broccoli and a brown rice quinoa medley (from Costco and it rocks!)
