- 2 cups apple cider
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Whisk apple cider, brown sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and nutmeg together in a bowl.
- Place chicken breasts in a single layer in the bottom of a large casserole dish. Pour apple juice mixture over chicken breasts. Cover casserole dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake chicken breasts in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
