Chicken with mushrooms in madeira sauce

No ratings yet

Madeira sauce is a rich peppery sauce which can be made with oadeira wine, marsala or dry sherry. It is a great compliment to chicken.

Ingredients

1 Tbsp Olive oil
4 Chicken breasts, skinless and boneless
1 Onion, sliced
2 Garlic cloves, peeled and kept whole
¾ cup White wine
8 Tbsp Madeira, (or marsala or dry sherry)
300 ml Cream
25 g Butter
6 Swiss brown mushrooms, sliced

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a frying pan, then add chicken, onion slices and garlic cloves. Cook over a medium heat for 5 minutes, then turn chicken over and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. Pour in white wine and let it reduce by half. Stir in madeira and simmer for a couple of minutes. Add cream and simmer for a few more minutes, until heated through and thickened slightly. Turn off the heat and leave to rest for a couple of minutes.
  3. Heat butter in a small pan and cook mushrooms for 2 minutes.
  4. Take chicken out of the pan and slice.
  5. Reheat sauce, remove garlic and spoon sauce onto warm plates. Place chicken and mushrooms on top. Serve with potatoes and greens.
