How to Make Chicken Breasts With Mushrooms And Tarragon

  1. In a 12-inch skillet, heat 1 tablespoon (15ml) olive oil over medium-high heat.
  2. Add 8 ounces (225g) sliced mushrooms and 1/2 cup (125g) finely chopped shallots. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are golden brown and any liquid has evaporated, about 12-15 minutes.
  3. Transfer the mushroom mixture to a bowl and set aside.
  4. On a sheet of waxed paper, combine 1/4 cup (30g) all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons (4g) chopped fresh tarragon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
  6. In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon (15ml) olive oil over medium heat until very hot.
  7. Add 2 (6 ounces/170g each) boneless, skinless chicken breasts and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
  8. Transfer the chicken to a warm platter and set aside.
  9. Add 1/2 cup (120ml) low-sodium chicken broth, 1/4 cup (60ml) dry white wine, 1 tablespoon (2g) chopped fresh tarragon, and the mushroom mixture to the skillet.
  10. Cook for 1 minute, stirring to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
  11. Pour the sauce over the chicken and serve immediately.
