Ingredients

1/2 cup chopped peeled apple
2 tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon dry bread crumbs
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (5 ounces each)
1/4 cup unsweetened apple juice
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon butter, melted
3/4 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon cold water
1/8 teaspoon paprika

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the apple, cheese, bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Flatten chicken to 1/4-in. thickness; top with apple mixture. Roll up and secure with toothpicks.

Place in an 8-in. square baking dish coated with cooking spray. Pour apple juice and water over chicken; brush with butter. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. Discard toothpicks.
Transfer pan juices to a saucepan; bring to a boil. Combine cornstarch and cold water until smooth; stir into pan. Cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Pour over chicken. Sprinkle with paprika.
