Servings: Serves 6
Ingredients:
- 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast pieces
- Sea salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup of organic chicken broth or stock
- Juice of one lemon
- 1 cup of cream
- 3 Tbl of finely minced, fresh tarragon
Instructions:
Season chicken with salt and pepper. Spray large sauté pan with olive oil. Put the chicken in smooth side down. Sauté on medium high for 5 minutes until chicken has a nice, golden crust.
Place the chicken in an oven-proof pan and put in your oven to roast at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until chicken has no more pink in the middle.
While the chicken roasts, make your sauce.
In a medium sauce pan add the chicken broth. Cook on a medium boil until the broth reduces in half. This makes the flavor richer. Add the lemon juice and the cream. Cook on low boil until the sauce begins to thicken. Don’t let it boil over. This process will likely take about 15 minutes. Hang around so you can keep an eye on it. The cream will thicken as the sauce cooks. Season with pepper if you want. When the sauce has thickened, add the tarragon and turn off the heat. Just let it sit until the chicken is done.
Serve the chicken with a drizzle of sauce over the top. Green beans and an optional salad will round this French meal out nicely.
Enjoy!
Cheers!

When I was a kid this was served at very special meals. My mother made hers plain. I had no idea how incredibly fabulous this meat could taste until I started adding the meat rub!

This is a takeoff of a cranberry bake recipe from Southern Living. This is homey, tasty, and not too sweet. Just a little cranberry twang but plenty of sweetness in the apples.
