Zoe's Chicken Tarragon

SolightlyUK's Note:

from a Good Housekeeping at my hair salon. Have made it once and it is easy and delish!

• Total Time: 40 mins
• Prep Time: 20 mins
• Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 4 chicken breasts, cut into bite size pieces
• 1 ounce plain flour, 25g
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 9 ounces chestnut mushrooms, sliced, 250g
• 5 ounces white wine
• 300 ml creme fraiche
• 1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons fresh tarragon, chopped
• spinach, 1 large handful

Directions:

1. Put the chicken into a bowl and sprinkle over the flour and some seasoning. Mix together.
2. Heat half of the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken for 5 min until golden - do this in batches to stop the chicken from sweating. Remove from pan and set aside.
3. Add the remaining oil to the pan and fry the mushrooms for 3 - 5 minutes until nearly cooked through. Return chicken and any juices to the pan. Pour over the white wine and simmer for 2 - 4 minutes.
4. Stir in the creme fraiche, mustard and most of the tarragon. Bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
5. Stir in the spinach and check the seasoning. Sprinkle over the remaining tarragon and serve immediately.

DELICIOUS! HIGHLY RECOMMEND this recipe and can't believe it's not already been rated. I discovered it in the Good House Keeping Christmas 2011 magazine and my boyfriend & I loved it. It's very easy and has already become a favourite. A great versatile recipe that will go well with potatoes, rice, pasta or a good crusty loaf & loads of veg.
