FRENCH CHICKEN TARRAGON
Tarragon doesn't get enough love. Most people know it only in its dried form, and administered with a heavy hand. But a few sprigs of fresh tarragon can be lovely. It's a traditional component of the mixture called fines herbes, contributing sweetness and an almost anise-like flavor. It happily finds its way into salads, vinaigrettes, and homemade mayonnaise, and it is often the herb of choice for chicken or fish. Tarragon is especially well suited for these braised chicken thighs, complementing the white wine and crème fraîche.

Steps:
- Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper. Let stand for 30 minutes to 1 hour at room temperature.
- Heat the oven to 400°F. Put an enameled cast-iron Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the butter and shallots and cook, stirring, until softened and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and chopped tarragon and cook for 1 minute (be careful not to let the garlic brown). Arrange the chicken thighs in the pot in one layer, add the broth and wine, and bring to a simmer.
- Put the lid on and place the pot on the middle shelf of the oven. Bake for 15 minutes, then lower the heat to 350°F and continue baking for 45 minutes, or until the thighs are tender. Put the thighs on a platter, cover loosely, and keep warm.
- Strain the pan juices through a fine sieve into a saucepan and spoon off any rising fat. Place the pan over medium-high heat, add the crème fraîche and lemon zest, and simmer until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
- Spoon the sauce over the chicken, garnish with tarragon leaves, and serve.
CRUSTED BAKED CHICKEN WITH TARRAGON CREAM SAUCE
This has a flavorful creamy gravy and really isn't hard to make. I serve it over mashed potates and sometimes cut the chicken breast into smaller pieces. A great dish for company and a hit with everyone in our house.

CROCK POT ROAST CHICKEN IN TARRAGON CREAM SAUCE
Although it's a bit cumbersome, it is best to brown the chicken first, not only for eye appeal but because it releases some flavorful fat in which to soften the shallots and enrich the cooking liquid. While not absolutely necessary, the addition of brandy enhances the rich cream sauce that makes a superb accompaniment to simple boiled potatoes with parsley, mashed potatoes or plain steamed rice.

- Turn off heat and pour brandy, if using, over chicken.
- Ignite and, when flames subside, transfer chicken to slow cooker stoneware.
- Drain off all but 1 tablespoons.
- fat in pan.
- Over medium heat, cook shallots until soft.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Add wine and chicken broth and bring to a boil.
- Cook until sauce is reduced by about one third, about 5 minutes.
- Pour over chicken, cover and cook on Low for 7 to 9 hours or on High for 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours, until juices run clear when pierced with a fork or a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh reads 170°F.
- Carefully lift chicken from liquid, transfer to a large heatproof platter and keep warm while you make the sauce.
- TO MAKE TARRAGON-CREAM SAUCE: Pour cooking liquid into a 4-cup heatproof measure and place in the freezer for a few minutes until the fat rises to the surface.
- Skim off as much fat as possible.
- Transfer remaining liquid to a saucepan and, over high heat, boil rapidly until sauce is reduced by half.
- Stir in tarragon and cream and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Serve in a sauce boat alongside carved chicken.
- TIP: I suggest trussing the chicken loosely for ease of browning and lifting.
- However, it is important to keep the string loose or the inner part of the thigh, which is less exposed to heat, will not cook properly.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Remove fat from the crop and cavity of the chicken. Remove the neck, gizzards and liver and freeze for another use.
- Squeeze half the lemon all over the skin of the chicken. Season the skin with salt and pepper. Stuff the cavity with the remaining half lemon, garlic and 1 bunch whole tarragon.
- Put the chicken in a roasting pan, breast side up, and roast 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the juices run clear. During the first few minutes, either shake the chicken or move it frequently with a wooden spoon to keep it from sticking.
- When chicken is done, tilt it over the roasting pan to let the cavity juices run into the pan. Remove the chicken to a platter. Pour off the fat from the roasting pan.
- Put the pan on top of the stove. Add the wine and bring the contents of the pan to a boil, while scraping the bottom vigorously with a wooden spoon. Stir in tarragon leaves. Let simmer 5 minutes once the pan is thoroughly deglazed. Serve the pan juices over the chicken or pass it separately in a sauce boat.
