This is one of my father's favorite chicken recipes.
Boneless chicken breasts are cooked with shallots, garlic, and mushrooms, and simmered with tomatoes and port.
Perfect for a quick and easy midweek meal that you may want to double because the leftovers may even be better on day 2!

Chicken, Mushrooms, and Tomatoes with Port Wine
Ingredients
-
4 chicken boneless breast halves (with skin or without)
-
Salt and pepper to taste
-
6 whole cloves garlic
-
2 tablespoons butter
-
1/4 pound cremini mushrooms, halved or quartered if large
-
3 tablespoons finely chopped shallots
-
1/4 cup Port wine
-
4 small (3/4 pound) plum tomatoes, cored and quartered, or 3/4 pound cherry tomatoes, cut in half (about 2 cups)
-
2 tablespoons chopped parsley, for garnish
Method
-
Salt the chicken:
Sprinkle the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper.
-
Boil the garlic:
Drop the garlic into a small saucepan of boiling water, cook for 5 minutes, and set aside. When cool, peel of the skins.
-
Brown the chicken:
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:
Add the mushrooms and cook, turning chicken occasionally, for about 2 minutes.
-
Add the shallots, garlic, Port wine, tomatoes, and seasonings:
Cover and cook for 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through to 165°F in the thickest part of the breast.
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.
