Orange Tarragon Chicken W/Sour Cream Sauce image

I hope you enjoy this dish, which has been adapted from a friend's recipe. I serve this with rice and green vegetables. This can also be made with boneless chicken breasts, but for some reason it seems to be more flavorful using the bone-in chicken.

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 chicken breasts, bone in
2 tablespoons oil
1 tablespoon butter

I tried this recipe and it was just okay. The chicken was a bit overcooked and the sauce was too tangy for my taste. I think I would try a different recipe next time.
