Chicken breasts w/garlic cream & onions

Yield: 4 Servings

Measure Ingredient
1½ cup Chicken broth
10 \N Small white onion, peeled
3 \N Cloves
⅓ teaspoon Tarragon or thyme
4 tablespoons Butter
4 tablespoons Oil
4 tablespoons Flour
\N \N Salt and pepper
2 \N Chicken breasts, split and skinned
½ pounds Mushrooms, sliced
2 \N Cloves garlic, minced
1 cup Light cream

Bring broth to a boil and add onion, one of which is stuck with cloves and tarragon. Simmer for 10 minutes, or until onions are soft.

Heat 2 tablespoons each butter and oil in a large skillet. Put 2 tablespoons flour, seasoned with salt and pepper, in a brown bag and shake the chicken in it. Brown chicken well on both sides in the skillet. Add the onions and broth, cover, and cook gently for 20 minutes.

In another pan, saute the mushrooms and garlic in the remaining butter and oil. Add remaining flour, season, and stir to a smooth paste. Add cream and stir until sauce is smooth.

Remove chicken and onions to a platter and keep warm. Combine the chicken broth and cream sauce and heat, stirring constantly, until smooth. Correct seasoning and pour sauce over chicken.

Note: This can be made ahead of time and gently reheated, but keep the chicken and sauce separate. Before serving, reheat chicken, reheat sauce, then pour sauce over the chicken. Yield: 4 servings.
