GRILLED CHICKEN BREAST WITH TARRAGON-LEMON SAUCE



Grilled Chicken Breast With Tarragon-Lemon Sauce image

Skinless chicken breast marinated in mustard, then basted with a tarragon-lemon sauce while grilling. I use bone-in breasts, so reduce the cooking time if you use boneless breasts. Prep time does not include the 2 hour marinating time.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
4 chicken breast halves, Skinned
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
1/3 cup butter
1 teaspoon dried whole tarragon
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 garlic clove, minced (sometimes I use 2, depending on the size of the clove)
1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt (depending on size of your chicken breast halves)

Steps:

  • Spread mustard on both sides of the chicken and sprinkle with the black pepper. Cover and refrigerate 2 to 4 hours.
  • Prepare your grill for cooking the chicken over medium coals.
  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat; stir in the remaining ingredients. Cook, uncovered, over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the sauce from the heat.
  • Baste the chicken with the sauce. Grill over medium coals for 50 to 55 minutes or until done (if your fire is too hot, it will dry out your chicken.) Turn and baste the chicken every 10 minutes with the remaining sauce.

MUSTARD-BRAISED CHICKEN WITH TARRAGON RECIPE



MUSTARD-BRAISED CHICKEN WITH TARRAGON Recipe image

Provided by á-3145

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup whole-grain mustard
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
3 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs, trimmed and patted dry
1 tablespoon grapeseed or other neutral oil
2 medium shallots, halved and thinly sliced
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup plain whole-milk yogurt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 450°F with a rack in the middle position. In a small bowl, stir together both mustards and ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper; set aside. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. In a 12-inch skillet over medium-high, heat the oil until shimmering. Add the chicken skin side down and cook without disturbing until golden brown, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Using tongs, transfer the chicken skin up to a plate, then spread ¼ cup of the mustard mixture evenly onto the skin sides. Pour off and discard all but 2 tablespoons of fat in the skillet and return the pan to medium. Add the shallots, garlic and flour, then cook, stirring often, until the mixture is light golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil over medium-high, scraping up any browned bits. Return the chicken pieces skin side up to the skillet and pour in the accumulated juices. Place the pan in the oven and cook until the thickest part of the thigh reaches about 175°F, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the chicken skin side up to a platter. Set the skillet over medium-high (the handle will be hot) and bring the cooking liquid to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is slightly thickened and a spoon drawn through the sauce leaves a trail, 5 to 8 minutes. Off heat, stir in the remaining mustard mixture, the yogurt and tarragon. Taste and season with salt and pepper, then spoon the sauce around the chicken.

  • Make sure the chicken is thoroughly coated in the marinade: This will help to infuse the chicken with flavor and prevent it from drying out.
  • Grill the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from burning and ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken: The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
