Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375. Pour the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Sear for a few seconds, then take out the cloves. Add the whole grapes and cook for 2 minutes. Add the wine, lemon juice and stock and cook to reduce the mixture by half (roughly 8 minutes). When the sauce has reduced to a syrupy consistency, remove from the heat and let cool. Mix the onion, walnut meal, pepper thyme and chili powder together in a bowl, and pat onto each chicken breast. Place the chicken breasts in a flat glass baking dish lightly coated with olive oil and bake for 35-40 min or until done. Place on dish and pour the sauce over them and sprinkle with chopped walnuts.
