Special Scallops and Chicken image

I make this main course when I want to wow company. It tastes heavenly, and guests always love it. The subtle flavor of tarragon in the creamy sauce complements the mushrooms, chicken and scallops nicely. -Sheila Vail Long Beach, California

The scallops were a bit overcooked, but the chicken was delicious. I will try again with a lower heat setting.
