Apple-Glazed Chicken Recipe: The Best Baked Chicken Recipe for Fall by Donna John

Fruit pairs so well with poultry and pork. In this one-pot chicken recipe, apples, garlic and onions team up with chicken to create an easy, hearty meal. The apple jelly glaze is optional, but adds even more sweetness and makes the chicken shine.
You could use boneless chicken for this recipe, just reduce the cooking time. Serve this easy dinner with your favorite side dishes. Whipped sweet potatoes or butternut squash would be delicious with it.
