Chicken With Apples And Stuffing - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, chopped in bite-size pieces
    1 teaspoon kosher salt, to taste
    1 teaspoon black pepper, to taste
    1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, to taste
    1 -2 tablespoon honey, to taste
    1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
    1 (6 ounce) package seasoned stuffing mix, flavor of choice
    1 (21 ounce) can apple pie filling
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
    Chop chicken, season with salt, pepper and 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, rubbing dry spices in thoroughly.
    In a skillet, brown chicken in oil over medium-high heat, adding honey as soon as the chicken hits the pan and starts sizzling! Toss to coat chicken. Remove as soon as chicken is cooked on all sides.
    Meanwhile, prepare stuffing according to package directions.
    Spread pie filling in a greased 8-in. x 8-in. square baking dish. Stir in 1 teaspoons cinnamon if not already included in pie filling. *Note: At this juncture, you may want to remove apples from their sauce and dice them up, then return. I find that though the apple flavor blends nicely, the whole apple slices frequently overpower the other components of the dish.
    Add chicken over the top of the pie filling, and then add the stuffing on top.
    Cover and bake for 25 minutes. Uncover; bake 5-8 minutes longer or just until top of stuffing browns just a bit and pie filling starts to bubble.
