Directions

In a nonstick 12-inch skillet, heat 1 teaspoon oil over medium-high heat until very hot. Add the chicken and cook until the chicken is golden brown and loses its pink color throughout, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and reduce the heat to medium. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil to the skillet. Add the apples and onions. Cook, stirring, until tender. Stir in the curry powder and salt; cook 1 minute. Stir in the chutney and 1/2 cup water. Heat to boiling and boil for 1 minute. Spoon the sauce equally over the chicken breasts.

    It was just OK. It's very easy, but, as a good (aspiring chef, I would do things a little differently.

    After the chicken is cooked and resting on a plate, I'd sautee the onions, first, until soft and just beginning to caramelize. Then, add the apples, (hopefully a good variety that's in season, (get what you like. I like Pink Lady. Finish cooking the apples and onions until tender. Go HEAVY on the curry powder, maybe even add a little Tumeric, and light on the chutney. Maybe use some apricot jam or preserves instead. Then finish the recipe as stated. I served it over rice.

    Delicious and easy (and I mean easy - I'm no cook. I really like the recipe as-is, but it was so easy I think I might play with it to come up with different versions too - I can already taste one with more Mexican flavors... yummmm!

    For anyone looking for a new chicken recipe, try this one. My husband almost told me not to make it. He thought it wasn't something he would like. He ended up loving it and said we've found a new chicken recipe for life. Easy, cheap, and really yummy.

    We thought it would be better with 2 apples & 2 onions. We used boneless/skinless chicken thighs (I would have preferred the breasts but since I wanted my husband to eat it, I used the thighs for the first time, cooked them, then cut them up and put them back into the pan with the apples/onions/chutney for a few minutes at the end. We used sweet mango chutney. The store also had hot but I was afraid it would be too hot. My husband put cayenne pepper on his to make it hotter.
