Preparation
- In a small saucepan, bring 3/4 cup broth to a boil. Stir in the raisins and remove from heat. Allow raisins to sit in liquid while preparing the rest of the recipe.
- In a 12-inch skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add chicken and cook for 2 minutes. Add white and light green pieces of scallions, placing them toward the center of the pan. Turn chicken and cook for 5 minutes.
- Stir in the raisins, their soaking liquid and remaining chicken broth. Bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Turn chicken and simmer for 5 more minutes. Turn chicken again and stir in cream, rhubarb and salt. Turn heat to low.
- In a small bowl, dissolve cornstarch in 1/4 cup water. Bring the cooking liquid in the pan back to a boil, then stir about 1 cup of it into the cornstarch mixture. Stir this back into the pan with the chicken. Return to a simmer and cook until the starch flavor is cooked out and the sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Stir in the rest of the scallions. Serve over medium egg noodles.
