chicken recipe

tarragon and chicken are really fantastic together and this recipe can be done stove top or in the oven.

What you need

1 1/2 Tablespoons tarragon chopped finely
2 cloves garlic crushed
juice of 1 lemon
3 Tablespoons melted butter
8-10 chicken thighs

The process

Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper.

Heat some oil in a frying pan and brown each thigh to a golden appetizing looking brown. This should take about 4 minutes and in the mean time,

Mix the melted butter, lemon juice, garlic and tarragon together in a bowl and when all the pieces are browned, pour the sauce over the chicken pieces, (at this point place in the oven at 200 celsius for 20 mins or continue ) reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid and cook for 20minutes or so, checking from time to time that they are not sticking and to turn the pieces.

The chicken will be soft and delicious with a distinct tarragon flavour.

Serve with rice or pasta and some suateed onions.
