This Norman-style chicken is silky, savoury, and gently sweet with the fragrance of apples, thyme, and cream. Golden chicken thighs braise in a reduced cider sauce with mushrooms and onion, creating a luxurious but balanced low-carb main course.

Apfelwein is crisp, dry, and sharply refreshing, with the clean aroma of fermented apples and a pleasantly tart finish. Served well chilled with a splash of sparkling mineral water, it becomes light, lively, and especially easy to drink.
