Recipe Introduction


The recipe for Drambuie (which gives this dish its wonderful flavour) is said to have been given to members of the MacKinnon clan in gratitude for their help after the Battle of Culloden Moor in 1746. The honey-sweet golden drink adds a distinctive flavour to many unique Scottish recipes.



List of Ingredients




4 chicken breasts, skinned and boned
3 tablespoons drambuie
4 fluid ounces chicken stock
8 fluid ounces double cream (heavy cream)
3 ounces unsalted butter
1 ounce flaked almond
4 apples
a little flour
salt and pepper


Recipe



1. Flour and season the chicken breasts and fry in hot butter in both sides.
2. When they are well browned, sprinkle with Drambuie, add the chicken stock, cover and simmer for ten minutes.
3. While the chicken is cooking, peel and core the apples.
4. Cut them into thick slices and cook gently in butter until fairly soft- do not stir to avoid mashing.
5. Remove the chicken to a serving dish, when ready, and keep warm in the oven.
6. Make the sauce by adding more Drambuie, if required, to the stock left in the pan and gently stir in the cream.
7. Heat but do not boil.
8. Add the roasted flaked almonds.
9. Cover the chicken with this sauce and garnish with the sliced apple.

Serves 4.
