Source: Main Street Cafe - Cottonwood, Arizona - as published in Arizona Republic 3/21/01

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
Salt and white pepper, to taste
1/4 cup flour, for dredging
1 to 2 tablespoons canola oil
8 shiitake mushrooms
8 oyster mushrooms
1 tablespoon shallots, minced
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1/2 cup Madeira wine
1 cup fresh chicken stock, heated
Fresh truffle shavings, to taste
2 to 3 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
Fresh parsley, to garnish

Lightly pound chicken breasts and season with salt and white pepper. Lightly dredge with flour.

Heat canola oil in a large skillet over high heat. Brown chicken, then decrease heat to medium-high.

Add mushrooms and saute with chicken. Add shallots and garlic. Saute until shallots are translucent.

Add Madeira and reduce by half.

Add truffle shavings, then season to taste with salt and pepper.

Add butter - this will reduce as it incorporates. Heat 1 to 2 more minutes, to let sauce thicken. If liquid dries out, add hot water or hot chicken stock.

Add lemon juice and garnish with fresh parsley just before servings.

Makes 4 servings.
