Tarragon Chicken with Apples for Two image

When friends served us this delicious chicken, I knew I had to have the recipe. The original version called for whipping cream, which is a little high in fat for me. I substituted 1% milk and found that it was just as good but not quite as rich.-Karen Moffatt, Lake Cowichan, British Columbia

I'm not a big fan of tarragon, but I really enjoyed this dish. The apples and cream sauce balanced out the flavor of the tarragon perfectly.

The chicken was a bit overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend cooking the chicken for a shorter amount of time.

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