Chicken With Almonds image

A never fail company dish. Can't say whether it is the tarragon, the almonds, the sherry but it is simply lovely. This recipe comes from my cousin Eleanor. She deserves all the credit for some of my best food experiences. I hope you agree.

This chicken with almonds recipe was a hit! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the almonds added a nice crunch. I also loved the slightly sweet and savory sauce.
