MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Chicken Cutlets Veronique Categories: Chicken, Wine, Fruit, Dairy, Herbs Yield: 2 servings 2 Skinless boneless chicken - breast halves 3 ts Fresh tarragon; chopped 2 tb Butter 1 Shallot; chopped 2/3 c Small green seedless grapes 1/2 c Dry white wine 1/2 c Whipping cream Place chicken breasts between sheets of waxed paper and pound to even 1/2-inch thickness. Peel off paper. Sprinkle chicken breasts with 1 teaspoon tarragon, then salt and pepper. Melt butter in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts to butter; saute until brown and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer chicken breasts to plates. Add shallot and remaining 2 teaspoons tarragon to drippings in skillet. Saute over medium-high heat until shallot begins to soften, about 2 minutes. Add grapes, wine and cream and boil until sauce thickens enough to coat spoon, about 5 minutes. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over chicken. Serve couscous and buttered carrots with this main course. And fresh rhubarb tartlets for a seasonal finale. Bon Appetit April 2000 A Cook from Chicago, IL on 08/22/03 I vary the veggie (I like sugar snap peas - but use red grapes then for more color). I have also increased the shallot to grape ratio and eased up on the whipping cream. It's yummy either way. A Cook from NYC on 05/04/03 Delicious! Added a bit more tarragon and used a combination of red and green grapes (halved for better presentation) Bing From: Josefina Anita Brown-King MMMMM
