Crusted Baked Chicken With Tarragon Cream Sauce image

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.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but the chicken came out dry and tough. The sauce was also a bit too salty.
