A delicious chicken recipe that is simple to make and delicious tasting with a side of bread – she made it for us at an SI Board meeting:

  • 2 ½ – 3 lb broiler-fryer chicken cut up ( I often use 6-8 chicken
    breasts)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 3 medium carrots, sliced
  • 1 Tbsp snipped fresh Tarragon or 1 tsp dried tarragon leaves
  • 1 ½ tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 4 oz. mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 stalks celery, sliced
  • 1 medium onion
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • ½ cup half & half
  • 3 Tbsp flour
  • 1 egg yol
  • Hot cooked noodles
  1. Heat chicken, chicken broth, carrots, tarragon, salt, pepper and bay leaf to boiling in 12 inch skillet or Dutch oven; reduce heat. Cover & simmer 30 minutes. Add mushrooms, celery and onion. Heat to boiling; reduce heat.
  2. Cover and simmer until thickest pieces of chicken are done, about 15 minutes.
  3. Remove Chicken and vegetables to warm platter with slotted spoon; keep warm.
  4. Drain liquid from skillet; strain and reserve 1 cup. Pour reserved liquid and the wine into skillet. Mix half & half, flour and egg yolk until
    smooth; stir into wine mixture. Cook stirring constantly, until thickened.
  5. Serve with chicken, vegetables and noodles.

Barb tried it in the slow cooker to see how that works. Always experimenting! I’d say it worked out really well Barb – the sauce was delicious.
