I hadn't made this dish for some time, so
I decided to have it as
part of dinner for guests on April 19, 2008.
I modified the original
recipe and used raspberry wine vinegar as
well as fresh tarragon -
a wonderful herb - which I grow in my well-lighted
spare bedroom.
| raspberry vinegar tarragon chicken | xxxxx | serves 6 |
| x | ||
| 3 split chicken breasts plus 5 drumsticks | 1 Tbsp tomato paste | |
| 3 Tbsp olive oil | 1 cup white wine | |
| 3 cloves garlic, minced | 1/4 cup chicken broth | |
| 1 medium onion, chopped | handful snipped fresh tarragon | |
| 1/2 cup raspberry wine vinegar | freshly ground pepper | |
| 1 Tbsp parsley | x | |
| x | ||
| Cut the chicken breasts into pieces, brown them and the drumsticks in the 2 Tbsp of the oil in an iron skillet. | ||
| Remove to a Dutch oven and saute the garlic in the remaining oil in the skillet for 5 minutes. Add the onion | ||
| and saute. Add to the chicken along with the vinegar. Mix the remaining ingredients and pour over the chicken. | ||
| Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer for 40 minutes. If a gravy is desired, dredge the chicken in flour | ||
| before browning or simply thicken liquid with 1 Tbsp cornstarch after cooking. Serve. | ||
