I came across this lovely looking chicken dish and would like to make it for DH and myself this weekend.
Its called 'Panko stuffed breast of chicken, florentine.
Braised spinach, Ricotta &Fontina Cheese are listed as the filling.
Its also served with 'Brandy Sauce'.
The breading and filling will not be a problem as I can play around with them both until I get a flavor I like.
Its the Brandy sauce I'm wondering about. I've never made brandy sauce and have a question for any of you that have.
I've found quite a few versions of brandy sauce so far, plain, fruit added, broth added, so I'm a little confused as to which type is the the most used and most popular.
Here's a couple of examples I've found. What do you think?
Brandy Mustard Cream Sauce
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons seeded mustard
1 tablespoon brandy
Combine ingredients in small saucepan bring to a boil, remove from heat and serve.
Wine recommendation: Chardonnay
This one is for beef of course but also has the same type of brandy sauce recipe only with broth added. Plus the mixture is added back to the pan instead of being made separately
4 Beef steaks or 4 pork chops
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons shallots, chopped
1 tablespoon green peppercorns
1 cup beef broth
1 tablespoon whole grain Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons heavy cream
2 tablespoons brandy or a touch more) :-)
2 tablespoons chopped chives for garnish
Instructions:

Heat butter in a skillet on medium heat
Add meat and cook your meat to the desired temperature (depending on thickness of meat)

In same skillet, add shallots and peppercorns and cook 2 minutes or until soft
Add broth, mustard, cream and brandy and cook 5 minutes or until reduced to 1/2

Top with sauce, garnish with chopped chives That’s all there is to this delicious brandy sauce recipe.
