- 1 cup (250 mL) chicken broth*
- ¼ cup (60 mL) unsalted butter*
- To taste salt and pepper
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts*
- ¼ cup (60 mL) whipping cream 35% m.f. or country-style cream 15% m.f.
- 2 Tbsp. (30 mL) cornstarch*, diluted with water

Preparation
In a skillet, put juice, syrup and chicken broth; add 2 Tbsp. (30 mL) butter.
Bring to a boil and add chicken.
Poach breasts, covered, on low for 15 minutes. Remove and keep warm.
Add cream and diluted cornstarch to pan juices, and reduce to a syrupy consistency (sauce should coat the back of a spoon).
Add remaining butter and adjust seasoning.
Slice cheese across, and roll slices in parsley.
Cut breasts into narrow strips.
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
In an ovenproof serving dish, arrange cheese slices and chicken strips in alternating layers.
Bake for a few minutes until cheese melts and spreads.
Serve with a garnish of apple fans and a bead of sauce drizzled over top.
