Steps:
- Saute the vegetables in the oil until they start to color. Put the stock in a large pot, add the vegetables and simmer for 20 minutes.
- In a small pan, combine red wine and port, and boil to reduce by half.
- Combine the stock, bouquet garni and wine reduction, and reduce by a third. Cool, add the breasts and refrigerate. Marinate for several hours or overnight.
- To serve, remove the breasts from the liquid, then bring it to a boil. Return the breasts to the liquid, and when it resumes boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 7 to 8 minutes, less if breasts are small, until they are cooked but still pink inside.
- Remove the breasts, slice thinly on the diagonal and keep warm. Taste the liquid. If it is too strong, dilute with water.
- With a hand electric whisk, beat in the butter, if desired. Arrange breast slices in shallow bowls, spoon over some of the liquid and serve. Garnish with parsley.
