Stir the resulting sauce well and again brush the chicken generously all over. Tuck a whole apple into the cavity. Let it marinate for 30 minutes. Then cover with foil and put in an oven preheated to 200 degrees to bake for 30 minutes. Then remove the foil, baste with more of the marinade and add another 2-3 halved apples. Finish baking the chicken, basting it 2-3 more times with the marinade. The result is a very tasty and unusually flavored chicken with which you can surprise your guests.
