This one comes out of the Pink Adobe Cookbook. Time does not include time to poach chicken breasts which can be done in advance.
Ingredients:
4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup white wine or 1/2 cup vermouth
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 egg yolk, beaten
1 dash cayenne pepper
1 dash ground pepper
1 dash ground nutmeg
1 dash ground cloves
4 tablespoons fresh mushrooms, chopped
1 teaspoon chives, chopped
6 chicken breasts, poached
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F Cut 6 pieces of foil large enough to make an envelope for each cicken breast. Butter the foil with 2 tablespoons of the butter.
2. Make a paste with the remaining butter and flour and set aside.
3. Mix the milk, wine and chicken broth together in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the butter-flour paste and stir until smooth. Reduce heat to low and when boiling has stopped, gently stir in the egg yolk making sure not to let the mixture boil.
4. Remove from heat and add cayenne pepper, ground pepper, nutmeg, cloves, mushrooms and chives.
5. Lay each chicken breast on a square of buttered foil and divide the sauce evenly over each breast.
6. Fold edges of foil and seal being careful to leave a little room for expansion. Bake for 10 minutes.
7. Serve wrapped in foil and let your guests open their own.
