Ingredients

  • chicken fillet – 2 pcs
  • apples – 1 pc
  • Brie cheese – 110 g
  • olive oil – 1.5 tbsp.
  • Salt – to taste
  • Pepper – to taste
  • sweet paprika – to taste
  • Maple syrup – 60 ml
  • French mustard (in grains) – 2 tsp.
  • thyme – 0.5 tsp.
  • garlic – 1.5 teeth

Instructions

  1. For the glaze, mix maple syrup, mustard, minced garlic, and dried thyme in a bowl.
  2. Cut the fillets lengthwise into a deep “pocket.” Season both sides with salt, pepper, and paprika. Fry in hot oil over medium-high heat for 3 minutes on each side.
  3. Remove the fillet from the pan. Top with slices of brie and 4–5 thin slices of apple (secure with toothpicks if necessary).
  4. Place the remaining apples in a frying pan. Brush the fillet with the glaze and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 20–22 minutes until the meat is cooked through.
