Powered byPreparation
- Step 1
Cover the beans with cold water; either soak them overnight or bring them to the boil. If boiling, boil them for one minute, remove the pan from heat, cover and let sit for one hour.
- Step 2
Drain the beans and combine them in a pan with the stock, vegetables and seasonings. Bring to a boil, remove any scum and simmer for about one-and-a-half hours, partially covered, until the beans are tender but not mushy. Keep the beans warm while preparing the sauce and chicken.
- Step 3
Prepare the sauce by simmering the wine and shallots in a saucepan until the liquid is reduced by half. Add the cream and again reduce by half. While the liquid is reducing, preheat the broiler. Pour the liquid into a blender and add the cheese, butter and pepper. Puree until smooth. For a perfectly smooth sauce, strain the liquid. Keep the sauce warm, covered, over very low heat.
- Step 4
Season the chicken breasts on both sides and grill or broil about four or five minutes per side; do not overcook.
- Step 5
Slice the breasts and pour the sauce over the slices. Serve with the beans to one side.
