Burgundy Chicken Breasts

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I prepared this last evening, and I believe there is an error in the ingredients and the step by step instructions. Four ounces of butter is way too much for this quantity of chicken. I believe 4 tablespoons would be more correct. Also, the chicken should be removed from the pan before deglazing and flambeing, not after. Because of the amount of butter, I could not reduce the sauce properly until after I spooned out the excess. I might try this again, but it would not be at the top of my favorite list. Rebuttals are invited.
