    Title: Chicken, Mushrooms & Tomatoes w/Port Wine
    Categories: Poultry, Vegetables, Mushrooms, Wine, Herbs
    Yield: 4 Servings

    4 Boned chicken breast halves
    - or thighs
    Salt & pepper
    6 cl Garlic; peeled
    2 tb Butter
    1/4 lb Cremini mushrooms; halved,
    - quartered if large
    3 tb Fine chopped shallot
    1/4 c Port wine
    4 sm (3/4 pound) plum tomatoes;
    - cored, quartered
    =+OR=+
    3/4 lb Cherry tomatoes; halved
    2 tb Chopped parsley; garnish

    Sprinkle the chicken on both sides with salt & pepper.

    Drop the garlic into a small saucepan of boiling water,
    cook for 5 minutes, and set aside. When cool, peel of
    the skins.

    Heat the butter in a heavy skillet and add the chicken
    pieces. Cook over medium high heat for about 1 minute,
    or until lightly browned on one side. Turn and cook for
    about 1 minute on the second side.

    Add the mushrooms and cook, turning chicken
    occasionally, for about 2 minutes.

    Add the shallots and the garlic cloves to the pan. Add
    the Port wine, tomatoes, salt and pepper to taste.

    Cover and cook for 10 minutes, or until the chicken is
    cooked through.

    Transfer the chicken, mushrooms, and tomatoes to a warm
    platter.

    If the sauce is too thin, cook it down for a minute or
    two. Pour the sauce over the chicken and sprinkle with
    chopped parsley.

    UDD NOTES: I used Merlot wine as it was what was at
    hand. Worked well. I used Cajun shallots (green onion)
    chopped, slicing the tops to use for garnish along with
    the chopped parsley.
