We eat a lot of chicken in our house, so I'm always looking for new recipes. I found this one in Applehood and Motherpie cookbook by the Jr. League of Rochester. It's quite simple but elegant, great for dinner anytime or when you have company. Ingredients:
4 chicken breast halves, skinless and boneless |
1/2 cup dry white wine |
2 egg yolks |
1/4 cup heavy cream |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped |
1 teaspoon basil |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
Directions:
1. Place chicken in skillet with wine.
2. Cover and cook over medium heat until done (about 15-20 minutes).
3. Remove from heat and set aside.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolks, cream, salt, 1/4 cup of cooking liquid, parsley and basil.
5. Pour egg yolk mixture into a small saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly until sauce thickens slightly.
6. Remove from heat and add lemon juice.
7. Remove breasts from pan using a slotted spoon.
8. Place on warmed serving platter.
9. Pour sauce over breasts just before serving.
