4 tablespoons olive oil

divided

2 skinless

boneless chicken breasts

trimmed and sliced into 1/2-inch fillets

Meat and Poultry

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 150 degrees F (65 degrees C).

Step 2

Dissolve cornstarch in 1/4 cup reserved cherry juice in a bowl. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken fillets in the hot oil 5 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a baking dish cover and place in the preheated oven to keep warm.

Step 4

Reduce heat under the skillet to medium and add shallots and garlic. Saute until nearly tender 3 to 4 minutes. Add sage and rosemary and saute for 1 minute. Pour in cherry wine and bring to a low boil for 30 seconds scraping the sides and bottom of the pan to deglaze by removing any drippings.

Step 5

Add any remaining cherry juice from the can cherries and cherry juice-cornstarch mixture to the skillet. Stir until liquid clarifies and starts to thicken 8 to 10 minutes.

Step 6

Return chicken to the skillet season with salt and pepper and let simmer in sauce for 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer chicken to a platter and ladle sauce with cherries on top.
