How to vertically align Chart JS legend

I am using Chart JS version 2.x. I have prepared a bar chart with chart JS. But I like to align the legend of the chart in right center. Below I am sharing the image.

enter image description here

And the legend position I want.

enter image description here

I have tried it from documentation. In my code

options: {
    legend: { 
        position: 'right' 
    }
}

Update 1: I am using chart js module in Angular5

Update 2: what I have tried that is https://jsfiddle.net/v4ur38ao/1/

legend: {
    position: "right",

},


var ctx = $('#myChart');

ctx.height(100);

var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {
    type: 'bar',
     data: {
        labels: ["APP1", "APP2", "APP3", "APP4", "APP5"],
        datasets: [{
