ingredients
- 4 chicken breast halves, pounded flat
- 1⁄2 cup flour
- 1⁄2 cup butter, divided
- 1 1⁄2 cups red wine (I like to use cabernet, but you can use whatever you like)
- 2 beef bouillon cubes
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 lb fresh mushrooms, sliced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup half-and-half
- 1⁄2 cup sour cream
- 1⁄3 cup jam (blackberry or cherry work best)
directions
- Melt 1/2 stick of butter in a large, deep skillet over medium high heat. Dredge chicken breast halves in flour until coated and add to skillet. Saute until lightly browned on both sides, maybe 4 minutes per side. Do not cook through, though. Remove from skillet and keep warm.
- Lower heat and add wine, stirring and scraping the bottom to remove the bits stuck to it. Add buillion, remaining butter, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and add mushrooms, onions and garlic. Cook until the onions are translucent and mushrooms are soft, stirring constantly. Continue to cook until the liquid is reduced by half.
- Lower heat to medium low and add half and half, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens. Add sour cream and stir until warmed.
- Return chicken to the skillet, cover, and cook until chicken is cooked through, about ten minutes. Place one chicken breast half on a plate, spoon over some of the sauce, and drop on a spoonful of the jam, if desired.
