INSTRUCTIONS
Soak the raisins in the port wine at least 1 hour or, preferably,
overnight.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a saute pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. When hot, saute
the chicken breasts on one side until golden brown. Turn the chicken
over and transfer to an ovenproof dish. Bake for 10 minutes.
In the meantime, in the saute pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon
olive oil. Add the shallots and sweat them for 2 minutes. Add the
mushrooms and saute them for 2 minutes. Add the vinegar and reduce
until almost dry. Stir in the raisins and their soaking liquid. Cook
until the liquid is reduced by half. Add the cream or evaporated
milk, nutmeg, and cornstarch mixture. Cook for 2 more minutes, but do
not bring to a boil.
Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Spoon the sauce onto
serving plates, set a chicken breast on top, and garnish with fresh
herbs.
