This recipe was a disaster! The sauce curdled, the chicken was overcooked, and the pasta was mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The sauce was very heavy, and the sun-dried tomatoes were a bit too sweet. I think I would prefer a lighter version of this dish, with a less creamy sauce and fewer sun-dried tomatoes.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning, maybe some salt, pepper, or garlic powder. I also would have liked the chicken to be a bit more crispy. Overall, it was a good recipe, but I would make some changes to it next

I'm not a huge fan of sun-dried tomatoes, so I omitted them from the recipe. I also used a different type of pasta, penne instead of fettuccine. The dish turned out great! The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the chicken was cooked perfectly.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I made a few changes to suit my taste. I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs instead of breasts, and I added a bit of white wine to the sauce. I also used a blend of fresh and dried tarragon. The result w

I had high hopes for this recipe, but it was a bit disappointing. The tarragon flavor was too overpowering, and the sauce was too heavy. I think I'll try a different tarragon chicken pasta recipe next time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning, maybe some salt, pepper, or garlic powder. The chicken was also a bit dry. I would suggest using a different cooking method, like grilling or baking, to keep the chicken moist.

I'm not usually a fan of tarragon, but this dish changed my mind. The subtle anise flavor paired beautifully with the chicken and pasta. The sun-dried tomatoes added a nice sweetness and tang. I'll definitely be making this again.
