We adapted this recipe from AllRecipes.com. They said:
We first posted this recipe years ago, it came from my dear friend Heidi H in Carlisle, Massachusetts. I think she got a version of it from the Boston Globe. With apple season upon us, it is timely again. This is a quick and easy chicken dish for a mid-week meal. Apple slices cook alongside chicken breasts and everything comes together with a simple honey mustard sauce.
If you find yourself not able to eat all the apples,
condiser carmelizing some and putting them away
for the winter.
Peel the apples and slice them. Caramelize the
apple slices in butter and sugar with a little
cinnamon or a few drops of vanilla. Add some
sweet white wine like a Riesling and reduce the
liquid completely. When the apples are cool, store
in plastic bags and freeze. Warm caramelized
apples with ice cream make a great winter dessert.

This recipe is very easy and always rewarding.
Ingredients:

Allyson’s Appalachian Apple Cake
While I’m talking about me, the winter is also a
time when Allyson and I get to travel some. We
stopped at the Tamarac in southern WV a few
years back and bought an Appalachian cookbook.
It’s called “Appalachian Home Cooking.” I like it
because it’s more than a cookbook. It talks a lot
about the history, culture, and other influences on
the cuisine. All in all, the recipes are comfort
foods and rather unhealthy, but they give you
ideas you can build on.
One recipe Allyson really liked was one for an
