Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375F.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  3. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and add them to the skillet. Brown them evenly on all sided, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  4. Add the shallots to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft. Add the garlic and cook for another minute.
  5. Add the chicken broth, mustard, and wine and bring to a boil. Return the chicken with all the juices to the pan, cover with a well-fitted lid, and transfer to the hot oven.
  6. Bake until the chicken is cooked through, about 45 minutes.
  7. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and cover to keep warm. Return the pan to the stove top, add half of the chopped tarragon and the crème fraiche, and simmer until the mixture thickens.
  8. Spoon sauce over chicken and garnish with the remaining tarragon.

Notes

  • Use a delicious white wine. The rule of thumb is: you drink it, you cook with it. Do not ruin a great dish with a less expensive and less good wine.
  • Be extremely careful when placing alcohol in a skillet. I always remove the skillet from the heat source and turn it off.
  • Placing the alcohol in the middle of the pan is also a safe way of doing it.
  • Of course, keep your eyes on the skillet pouring away from you, and keep all loose clothing away from the heat source.
  • When cooking skin on chicken, please do not turn it over until all the resistance is gone once you slightly push it with your utensils. You want to see a beautiful golden color to the skin and the skin still attached to the chicken.
