Steps:
- If you haven't already pounded your chicken breast halves, do so now- they should be 1/4" thin; season with salt and pepper to taste on both sides. Peel your apples unless you prefer them to have the skin on.
- Combine apple chunks,cheese, and bread crumbs in a small bowl.
- Divide the apple mixture into two portions and place one portion on top of each piece of chicken.
- Roll up chicken into a bundle, using toothpicks to secure if needed.
- Melt butter in a skillet, then brown the chicken briefly on both sides in the butter- just a few minutes each side to brown but not cook all the way through yet.
- Once browned, add wine and 1/4 cup of water.
- Cover pan and let simmer 15-20 minutes on medium-low heat- until chicken is no longer pink and completely cooked through.
- Remove cooked chicken from the pan using a slotted spoon and set on two plates.
- Remove toothpicks.
- Whisk together 1 Tbsp of water and the cornstarch well and add to the pan juices.
- Whisk until blended and cook and stir until thickened slightly (you may need to raise the heat a bit); test for seasoning and add more salt and pepper if needed.
- Ladle over chicken and sprinkle parsley over tops as a garnish.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken breasts. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are best for this recipe. Make sure they are of uniform thickness so that they cook evenly.
- Use a sharp knife to butterfly the chicken breasts. This will help to ensure that they cook evenly and that the stuffing stays inside.
- Don't overfill the chicken breasts. You want the stuffing to be evenly distributed throughout the chicken, but you don't want it to be so full that it bursts out during cooking.
- Use a toothpick to secure the chicken breasts closed. This will help to keep the stuffing inside and the chicken breasts from falling apart.
- Cook the chicken breasts until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can use a meat thermometer to check the temperature.
- Let the chicken breasts rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to keep the juices inside the chicken.
Conclusion:
Cheddar Orchard Apple Stuffed Chicken Breasts are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken breasts are juicy and flavorful, and the stuffing is a perfect combination of sweet and savory. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
