Directions
Split, bone, and skin chicken breasts, yielding 8 pieces of about 6 oz each, or use 8 already boned and skinned breasts.
Pat chicken dry. Heat oil in non-stick skillet. Brown breasts on both sides, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to Dutch oven, layering pieces if desired.
Add garlic, tarragon, pepper, broths and wine. Cover, bring to a low boil, then boil for 7 minutes or until chicken breasts are cooked through. When done, remove chicken from liquid and cover to keep warm.
Strain broth. Return broth to a boil, then slowly add cornstarch/water mixture until sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and adjust seasonings if necessary. Add tomatoes and mushrooms and let set for 3 minutes.
Set 2 chicken breast halves on each serving plate and top with sauce. Serve with Garlic Horseradish Mashed Potatoes. Makes 4 servings.
Note: Not all of the sauce will be used up when serving this dish.
