Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 c unsalted chicken stock
1/2 carrot, cut into 1 inch pieces
1/2 celery stalk, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 onion, halved
1 bay leaf
1 clove garlic, crushed
4`` skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, 6 ounces each
1/2 tsp kosher salt, divided
1/2 tsp black pepper, divided
3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
2 tsp butter, divided
1 c mushrooms, quartered
1/2 c green onion, sliced
1 Tbsp water
2 1/2 tsp cornstarch
1 Tbsp fresh tarragon, chopped

Steps:

  • 1. Place the first 6 ingredients in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook 6 minutes or until reduced to 1 1/4 cups. Remove the solids with a slotted spoon; discard.
  • 2. Cut the chicken breast halves in half horizontally to form 8 cutlets. Sprinkle evenly with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • 3. Place the flour in a shallow dish; dredge the chicken in flour.
  • 4. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil and 1 teaspoon butter to the pan; swirl until the butter melts. Add 4 cutlets to the pan; cook 2 minutes on each side or until golden. Remove from pan; keep warm. Repeat the procedure with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, 1 teaspoon butter, and 4 cutlets.
  • 5. Return the skillet to medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and onions; cook for 5 minutes or until browned, stirring occasionally. Add the stock mixture; bring to a boil, scraping the pan to loosen the browned bits.
  • 6. Combine 1 tablespoon water and cornstarch in a small bowl. Stir the cornstarch mixture into the stock mixture; cook 1 minute or until the sauce thickens. Stir in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and tarragon. Spoon the sauce over the chicken.

I would give this recipe a 1 out of 5 stars. It was a major disappointment.

This recipe is a waste of time and ingredients. The chicken was tough and the sauce was flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly and the dish turned out bland and unappetizing. I would not recommend this recipe.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend cooking the chicken for a shorter amount of time.

I found that the sauce was a bit too thick for my taste, so I added a little bit of chicken broth to thin it out.

This dish was a bit more time-consuming than I expected, but it was definitely worth the effort. The chicken and sauce were both excellent.

I'm not a huge fan of mushrooms, but I really enjoyed the sauce in this dish. It was creamy and flavorful, with just a hint of tarragon.

I added a bit of white wine to the sauce and it really enhanced the flavor. I also used a mix of cremini and shiitake mushrooms, which gave the sauce a nice variety of textures.

This is one of my go-to recipes when I'm entertaining guests. It's always a crowd-pleaser and the leftovers are just as good the next day.

I'm not usually a fan of tarragon, but it worked surprisingly well in this dish. The sauce had a lovely creamy texture and the mushrooms added a nice earthy flavor.

I made this dish for a dinner party and it was a huge hit! Everyone raved about the chicken and the sauce, and I received several requests for the recipe.

The chicken cutlets were cooked to perfection, juicy and tender on the inside with a crispy golden-brown exterior. The tarragon mushroom sauce was simply divine, with a rich and flavorful broth that had just the right amount of tanginess from the tar

This chicken cutlet dish with tarragon mushroom sauce was an absolute delight! The flavors were incredibly well-balanced, with the tarragon adding a subtle yet distinct herbal note that perfectly complemented the earthy mushrooms and tender chicken.
