Grilled Chicken with Apple Onion Chutney & Brie

Daily Tidbit:   Visiting a farm to do "Pick Your Own" fruits and veggies is a great time.  We went last weekend to pick Apples and ended up with a ton!  I decided it would be fun to try some in a savory dish with Grilled Chicken and Onions and Brie Cheese (pictured above).  It was delicious!
