Welcome to my cookbook, which is a collection of recipes scribbled on 3x5 cards, torn out of magazines, or (since the early 1990s) printed out on computer paper. It's time to get these unruly recipes whipped into shape. I have given credit wherever I can, but I don't know the origin of all of these recipes. If you recognize one of your recipes, please let me know so that I can give you a credit, the proper copyright notice, and/or add a link to your site.

Shiitake Mushrooms with White Wine and Chicken

Note: Another one on the "I've been meaning to try it" list.

  • 4 TB. olive oil
  • 4 large boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
  • 2 oz. dried shiitakes, reconstituted and sliced with stems removed
  • 1/2 cup chopped shallots
  • 1 cup low-salt chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1 ts. dried tarragon, crumbled

Heat 3 TB. olive oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper.

Add chicken to pan and saute until golden brown and just cooked through. Transfer to plate.

Heat remaining 2 TB. oil in same skillet. Add mushrooms and shallots, sauteing until mushrooms are light brown, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer mushrooms to plate with chicken.

Add broth, wine, tarragon to skillet; simmer until reduced to sauce consistency, about 5 minutes.

Return chicken, mushrooms, and any collected juices to pan. Simmer until just heated through, about two minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Serves 4.
