DIRECTIONS

Brown the chicken breasts in a frying pan, just to add color.
Place the chicken breasts in an oiled roasting pan, sprinkle with salt & pepper, & bake at 350 for approximately 20 minutes.
Sauce:
Crush the peppercorns with a mortar & pestle or between 2 spoons.
In a medium saucepan, add chicken broth, chablis, and peppercorns.
In a small prep bowl, combine a couple tablespoons of the broth/chablis with the cornstarch & then incorporate back into the saucepan.
On low heat, stir until slightly thickened.
Add cream & stir.
Remove chicken from oven (any juices from the chicken can be added to the sauce).
Place chicken on plates & spoon sauce over each breast.
Prep time includes the time to make the sauce while the chicken is cooking.
The green peppercorns can be found in specialty shops or online.
