- #90382

30-60 minutes
ingredients
1/4 ounce imported dried mushrooms (such as porcini)
4 large leeks
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1 cup chicken stock or broth
2 tablespoons white port wine or other white wine
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/3 cup hot water
1/3 cup whipping cream
freshly grated nutmeg, to taste
salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
crushed red pepper flakes, to taste
directions
Put mushrooms in a small dish and cover with hot water. Let soak until soft, about 30 minutes. Drain and slice the mushrooms.
Trim the coarse green ends from the leeks. Slit the leeks and fan the leaves open under cold water to remove the dirt. Quarter them lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1/2-inch slices.
Remove the skin from the chicken. Pound each breast between 2 sheets of waxed paper or plastic wrap to a uniform thickness of about 1/4-inch.
Combine the chicken stock and port wine in the pressure cooker. Add chicken breasts and leeks. Close pressure cooker. Bring up to high pressure for 2 minutes. Release pressure.
Set chicken aside and tent it with aluminum foil. Remove all but 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid from the bottom of the pressure cooker.
Add mushrooms and mustard. Heat to a boil. Add cream and cook over high heat until it thickens lightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Add nutmeg, salt and pepper to taste and remove from heat.
To serve, spoon leeks onto serving plate and top with a chicken breast.

This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
