This is my favorite French cuisine

Brie cheese

🥗Healthier: low-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: cream cheese

Low-fat cheese reduces calories while cream cheese is more affordable.

maple syrup

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: brown sugar syrup

Honey is a natural sweetener, while brown sugar syrup is less expensive.

chicken breasts

🥗Healthier: turkey breasts

💰Cheaper: chicken thighs

Turkey is leaner, and thighs are often more economical.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil is healthier, while canola oil is budget-friendly.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Sauté chopped onions and garlic until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Add diced apples and thyme, cooking until softened, about 5 minutes.

Remove from heat and stir in bread crumbs and Brie cheese until well combined.

Slice a pocket into each chicken breast, being careful not to cut all the way through.

Stuff each chicken breast with the apple and Brie mixture, securing with toothpicks if necessary.

Season the outside of the chicken with salt and black pepper.

Heat butter in the skillet over medium heat and sear the stuffed chicken for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and drizzle with maple syrup and chicken broth.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving, garnished with parsley.
