It’s Fall and Apple Season is in full swing… well maybe not here in Florida haha, but I can pretend right?!

I grew up in the Midwest. Minnesota to be exact and every fall I looked forward to visiting Apple Orchards. It was a family tradition of ours.

We would walk around the Orchards picking as many different varieties of Apples as we could fit into our bucket.

Once we were back at home I’d head into the kitchen to create as many yummy recipes with Apples as I could think of. Back then I created mostly desserts with the Apples, like pies, bars, etc.

These days I’m not much into baking pies, or making desserts with Apples. Mainly because I’m trying to live a more healthier lifestyle. Not that I don’t indulge every once in a while, I typically just don’t like keeping sweets in my house… because I would eat them all in one sitting.

So today I decided to create a healthier recipe using Apples, Chicken Thighs, and some fresh seasonings. This recipe requires only one skillet and can be made in under 30 minutes!

I hope you guys love these Skillet Apple Chicken Thighs as much as we did! They’re:

  • Simple to make
  • Savory
  • Tender
  • Juicy
  • and totally Satisfying

Oh and if you’re looking to pair this with wine, I’d recommend a nice dry Rose’.
