Arrange the chicken breasts in a single layer in a large casserole dish. Pour the apple cider mixture evenly over the chicken. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil. (3 minutes)

Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). The juices should run clear when pierced with a fork. (60 minutes)

Serve with roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
