    Directions:
    In large skillet cook bacon over medium heat until crisp; remove from pan, reserving drippings in skillet. 

    Add chicken, skin side down, and cook about minutes until skin side is browned.

    Turn the chicken and cook another 5 minutes or so, and remove from skillet.

    Top with cider mixture.

    The decadent, borderline sinful combination of bacon and blue cheese is one I use sparingly, but with the season of dinner parties upon us, I can’t think of a better reason to break it out.

    Update chicken night with fresh apples and seasonal cider for a meal that feels like fall. Anytime you cook down apple cider, the flavor intensifies making this a nice pair to rice and vegetables, whichever you happen to have on hand.

    4-5 boneless chicken breasts or thighs
    1 ½ cups apple cider
    1 small onion, chopped
    1 apple, sliced into ¼-inch wedges
    2 cloves garlic, chopped
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    2 tablespoons butter, divided
    1 teaspoon fresh thyme
    1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
    Salt and pepper for seasoning
