Cut each breast into two and gently cut and
pull the skin and fat away from
the meat. Mix the flour with the thyme and pepper then lightly
dust the
breast halves with the mixture and set aside. Heat a tablespoon
of oil in a
saucepan and toss in the rhubarb. Cover and cook gently over
medium- low
heat for 3 to 4 minutes or until the rhubarb is tender. Stir
in the orange
zest, a tablespoon of honey and the worcestershire sauce.
Cover again and cook for another minute or two. Taste and add
the extra
honey if you want a sweeter sauce. Stir to form a puree and
set it aside in
a warm spot. Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan and add
the halved
breasts to the pan. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes or longer if they
are
especially large. To serve, place each breast on a warmed plate
and slice
on the on the diagonal into 6 or 7 thin slices. Add some rhubarb
puree and
watercress. Serves 8. Potatoes, carrots, and fresh peas are
all good
accompaniments.
Makes 8 servings.
