Creamy Chicken with Asparagus & Tarragon

Recipe Description

This Creamy Chicken with Asparagus & Tarragon is one of my favorite recipes, probably because it includes one of my favorite herbs – tarragon. I love tarragon so much – I would add it to every dish if I had the chance! If you’re a fan of the French herb like me, this is the recipe for you!

Start by cooking the potatoes. In a pan, fry the chicken gently with the onion and garlic until light brown. To make the creamy sauce, pour over the stock and add 2 sprigs of tarragon. Cook for 5 minutes before adding the asparagus. Chop the remaining tarragon and add it to the sauce with the crème fraîche. Stir and serve with the potatoes.

To make Creamy Chicken with Asparagus & Tarragon, you will need the following ingredients:
