Morel Sauce I



Morel Sauce I
This is wonderful with a tender steak, or over sautéed chicken breasts. I love it with a good risotto, some crusty bread, and tossed greens.
Ingredients:

1 tablespoon butter
1 medium shallot, minced
2 cups fresh Morel mushrooms, cleaned, trimmed and quartered
1/2 cup dry white wine
3 cups chicken stock
1 cup heavy cream
Sea salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Preparation:
Place a 1-quart saucepot over medium heat. Add the butter and minced shallots and cook until the shallots are translucent.
Add the mushrooms and a pinch of salt. Cook for three minutes, stirring from time to time.
Add the white wine and reduce by about two-thirds. Add the heavy cream. Turn the heat down to a bare simmer, and cook for about 20 minutes. The sauce is done cooking when it coats the back of a spoon. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
