Très Rapide French Summer Tarragon Chicken image

A simple supper or luncheon recipe that can be whipped up in a trice! Organic chicken breasts that are diced and then sautéed with fresh tarragon and crème fraiche with just a hint of lemon juice! This can be made in less than 15 minutes from prep to plate, making it an ideal recipe for busy bees or couch potatoes! I love this served with a simple selection of salad leaves and herbs dressed with a classic French dressing. Do try to use fresh tarragon, I have not tried this with dried, but imagine that it will not be as zingy and fresh. This is not necessarily a summer recipe, but my tarragon is in season at the moment, the sun is out and therein a recipe name was born! Bon appétit!

Time 13m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 teaspoon butter
1/2 teaspoon nut oil, such as walnut oil
1 chicken breast, boned (with skin or skinless)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon leaves
creme fraiche, to taste
lemon juice, to taste
salt & freshly ground black pepper
fresh tarragon leaves (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Cut your chicken breast into smallish pieces, I like to cut mine into fingers about 1/2" wide and 3" long -- you can also dice it into cubes if you wish.
  • Heat the butter and oil until sizzling but not brown, add the chopped tarragon and chicken pieces immediately (skin side down if using chicken with skin) and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the chicken is sticky and a nice caramel colour; the butter will have browned by now, but that is fine as long as it does not burn. Turn the chicken over and cook another 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add some crème fraiche to your own requirements - I use about 2 tablespoons, but you can add more later. Allow to bubble for about 2 minutes and then add some lemon juice to taste. Season with salt and pepper and adjust the consistency if you want it creamier.
  • Serve with fresh tarragon leaves scattered over the top and a side salad with French dressing. Bon appétit!
