A slow Sunday, an autumn table
Maple-glazed chicken, bright green beans and warm apple crisp. Three recipes, a little planning, one relaxed supper.
Why this table works
Sweet mustard and roasted vegetables bring warmth; lemony beans and almonds add crunch. Apple and cinnamon finish the meal without another rich sauce.

- Bake the apple crisp first at its own temperature and let it cool. Do not force the dessert and chicken to share an oven setting.
- Reset the oven for the chicken. Prepare vegetables and glaze before raw poultry; wash hands and the board afterward.
- Make the beans while the chicken roasts. Check chicken reaches 165°F (74°C); serve the crisp at room temperature. Allow about 2½ hours including dessert.
