Number Of Ingredients 8

4 sprigs fresh tarragon (2 sprigs chopped, 2 whole sprigs for roasting), plus more for garnish
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 whole chicken (about 4 1/2 pounds), cut into pieces
2 cups chopped fresh pineapple
8 shallots (2 coarsely chopped, 6 halved lengthwise)
2 tablespoons rice-wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Stir chopped tarragon, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub mixture all over chicken. Transfer to a large roasting pan, arranging chicken so pieces are not touching. Refrigerate until ready to bake (up to 1 day).
  • Put pineapple, chopped shallots, vinegar, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt into a food processor. Process until mixture is slightly chunky, about 2 minutes.
  • Spread pineapple mixture over chicken. Top with dabs of butter. Add the remaining tarragon sprigs and 6 shallots to roasting pan. Bake chicken, basting with pan juices occasionally, until skin is golden, about 50 minutes.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I used rotisserie chicken and it turned out great. The pineapple and tarragon added a nice flavor.

This recipe was a disaster! The chicken was overcooked and the sauce was too sweet. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend cooking the chicken for a shorter amount of time or using a different cut of meat.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out perfectly. The sweet and savory flavors were well-balanced and the tarragon added a nice herbaceous touch. I served it with rice and roasted vegetables and it was a complete meal.
