Chicken Tarragon

Simple recipe with a few pantry staples, but the result is absolutely gorgeous, perfect for a mid week meal. I used full fat crème fraiche for this recipe, whilst it turned out well next time I will stick to half fat, to make it healthier.

Ingredients:

  • 430 gms diced chicken (Waitrose insists on packing diced chicken precisely at this quantity)
  • 1/2 tsp dried tarragon
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic finely chopped
  • 200 ml crème fraiche
  • Cornflour (for thickening sauce)
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Butter/ Margarine

Method:

Heat the olive oil and butter in a pan

Add chopped garlic and onions and fry for a couple of minutes

Add the chicken and dried tarragon and cook for about 6 minutes.

Add the white wine and cook till wine disappears.

Add crème fraiche and 1/2 cup of water and cook for a couple of minutes.

Mix cornflour with water and add to the pan.

Cook for a couple of minutes and serve hot with rice.
