Skillet Tarragon Chicken With Noodles Recipes

SKILLET TARRAGON CHICKEN

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper and dredge in flour. Set aside remaining flour.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat in large skillet and brown chicken on both sides. Remove chicken and keep warm.
• Saute onion in same skillet until it begins to become clear.
• Add wine and cook until liquid is almost evaporated, stirring to loosen browned bits (deglaze) on bottom of skillet. Watch closely- this happens fast!
• Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in reserved flour until it becomes a thick paste.
• Add tarragon, chicken broth and the cooked chicken. Cover and cook until tender.
• Place chicken on a warm platter.
• Add remaining butter and heavy cream to the liquid that is in the skillet and heat through.

TARRAGON CHICKEN AND EGG NOODLES

Steps:

• 1. Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Melt butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Transfer chicken to plate and tent loosely with aluminum foil.
• 2. Add shallots to the empty skillet and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in wine and cook, scraping up any browned bits, until pan is nearly dry, about 3 minutes.
• 3. Add broth and noodles and cook, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender and liquid has been absorbed, 8 to 10 minutes.
• 4. Stir in cream, tarragon, and chicken, along with any accumulated juices, and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve.

CREAMY CHICKEN TARRAGON WITH EGG NOODLES

Steps:

• Season both sides of the chicken with dry mustard, salt, and pepper. Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven (or large skillet) over medium-high heat. Carefully lower the chicken into the pot and cook for about 3-5 minutes per side to sear (just until they begin to brown slightly). Transfer the still-raw chicken to a plate.
• Reduce the heat under the pot to medium. Add chopped onion and optional mushrooms. Cook, stirring constantly for about 1 minute. Add the wine to deglaze the pan, cooking for about 1 minute more.
• Add the cream and half of the tarragon. Return the chicken to the pot and adjust the heat so that the cream gently simmers. Cover and cook, turning chicken occasionally, until it's firm and cooked through, about 25-30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook the egg noodles according to package directions. Drain and toss with butter, season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm.
• Remove chicken pieces from the pot, raise heat to medium-high and continue to simmer the sauce, uncovered, for a few minutes to thicken. Re-season with remaining tarragon and additional salt and pepper if needed.
• Remove about 1 cup of sauce and toss it with the egg noodles. Plate up the noodles, then place the chicken over the noodles and sprinkle with parsley.
