Add broth, apple cider, and garlic to skillet; bring to a boil and cook 10 minutes or until thick and syrupy, stirring occasionally; Add honey and apple wedges, and cook an additional 5 minutes or until apples are tender, stirring to coat apple wedges with sauce.

Spoon apple sauce over the chicken, and garnish with fresh rosemary, if decired. Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 stuffed chicken breast half and 6 apple wedges.)
