  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • ¼ cup unsalted chicken broth

Steps

    1. Halve potatoes. Chop well-rinsed leek (white part only; 1 cup). Core apple and chop into bite-size pieces. Chop thyme and garlic. Place potatoes in microwave-safe dish and cover; microwave on HIGH for 8–10 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork.

    3. Reduce heat medium; add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to pan. Season chicken with salt and pepper then place in pan; cook 3–4 minutes on each side or until well browned. Add leeks, apples, and garlic; cook and stir 1–2 minutes or until leeks begin to soften. Reduce heat to low.
    4. Combine broth, syrup, mustard, vinegar, and 1 teaspoon thyme, then add to chicken; simmer 2–3 minutes or until mixture thickens and chicken is 165°F. Remove chicken from pan; let stand 5 minutes to rest. Return potatoes pan and stir to coat; sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon thyme. Slice chicken and serve with sauce and potatoes.
