(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Chicken

Ingredients

  • 4 prepared buttermilk biscuits
  • 1-1 1/3 lb chicken breasts
  • 1/2 tsp poultry seasoning
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 4 scallions, chopped
  • 1 large shallot, chopped
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 3-4 sprigs tarragon, thinly sliced
  • 2-3 tbsp superfine flour

Directions

  1. Season chicken with seasoning and salt and pepper. Lightly brown chicken in olive oil, 4-5 minutes per side over medium to medium-high heat in a large nonstick skillet. Remove chicken, cut into large bite-size pieces, and set aside.

  2. Add a little more oil and butter to pan. Add veggies and saute 5 minutes. Add wine and allow it to reduce by half, 1 or 2 minutes.

  3. Pour in 1 cup broth and stir in tarragon. In a small bowl, combine flour with a splash of broth and stir into a thin paste. Add paste to pan and combine juices using a whisk. Slide chicken back into pan and cook until meat is tender and sauce is thickened, 3-4 minutes. Adjust seasonings to taste with salt and pepper.

  4. Serve over split biscuits.
