Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 shallot, finely chopped
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 1/2 cups whipping cream
2 tablespoons fresh basil, juliened
2 sweet red peppers
basil leaves
1 cup shredded asiago cheese

Steps:

  • Roast the red peppers until blackened. Place the peppers in a bowl & cover with wrap to generate steam for approximately 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the blackened skin and seeds. Cut each red pepper into thirds.
  • Cut the chicken in half horizontally almost but not all the way through. Open the chicken like a book and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place a slice of roasted red pepper onto one side of the opened chicken breast. Top each with 2 basil leaves. Sprinkle with cheese. Fold the other side of the chicken over creating a bundle. Secure the chicken bundle with three pieces of string.
  • In a large non-stick pan, heat half of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and cover. Cook for approximately 7 minutes per side or until no longer pink inside.
  • Remove to plate and remove strings.
  • Add the remaining oil to pan, and cook the garlic and shallots until softened.
  • Stir in wine and boil for 3 minutes.
  • Stir in whipping cream. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes or until thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  • Return chicken to the pan, turn the chicken to coat while reheating.
  • Remove the chicken to individual plates. Spoon the white cream sauce over the chicken and garnish with fresh juliened basil.
