Prep time: 0 mins Cook time: 0 mins Difficulty: ** * Dried minced tomatoes may be found in some large grocery stores and almost certainly at health food stores. If not available mince dried whole tomatoes in processor.
Saute' chicken breasts in butter over medium high heat, 3 minutes on one side; turn and cook 2 minutes more. Chicken is done when springy to the touch (these directions yield an incredibly tender chicken).
Remove Chicken from the pan and keep warm.
Add the minced tomatoes, wine and cream to the dripping in the pan and boil uncovered over high heat until BIG SHINY bubbles form..about 15 minutes (they will suddenly appear) stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, cook pasta uncovered in 3 quarts boiling water until al dente, drain onto platter.
Add Chicken to port mixture in pan, add salt and pepper to taste.
Spoon chicken and sauce over pasta and serve.
