Steps:
- Trim any rib meat and fat from the breasts. Cut breasts into 2 pieces, removing strip of cartilage that joins halves.
- Select a pan that will just hold the breasts when they are placed close together.
- Season both sides of chicken breasts with salt and white pepper, arrange them presentation side up.
- Add wine, chicken stock, bay leaf, thyme, and dried tarragon.
- Cut a piece of parchment paper to fit the pan you are using, rub butter on it. Place it butter side down on top of chicken mixture.
- Bring liquid to a simmer and reduce the temperature to just below simmering (this is poaching temperature).
- Allow chicken to cook through (about 7 minutes or until no longer pink in the middle). Remove chicken from pan.
- Turn temperature up until remaining liquid is boiling. Allow to reduce for a minute or two.
- Meanwhile mix 1 oz of butter and 1 oz of flour into a paste (this is called beurre manie).
- Once the liquid in the pan has reduced a little, whisk in the beurre manie, and bring back to a boil.
- Once liquid has thickened, add cream, and continue whisking until desired thickness.
- Strain liquid through cheese cloth, and serve over chicken breasts, with a sprig of tarragon.
POACHED CHICKEN WITH TARRAGON
This is from a 30 year old "garage sale" cookbook that I love called "Fifteen Minute Meals" by Emalee Chapman. The author studied cooking at Maxims in Paris. This simple recipe is delicious!

Steps:
- Spread the carrots and leeks across the bottom of a large soup pot. Season the chicken with salt and pepper to taste and add to the pot. Add the onions, turnips, garlic and bouquet garni. Add water to cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, partly covered, until a leg pulls easily away from the body, about 1 hour.
- Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and remove the skin. Detach the legs and wings and separate the drumsticks from the thighs. Remove the breast, discard the bones and slice the meat thinly. Cover and keep warm.
- Transfer all the vegetables in the pot to a bowl; cover and keep warm. Discard the bouquet garni. Return the pot to high heat and boil until the broth is reduced by half. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter, then whisk in the flour; do not allow to brown. Gradually whisk in 1 cups of the broth, allowing the mixture to thicken. Whisk in the cream and bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- To serve, place a bed of rice or noodles in a large, deep serving dish. Top with the vegetables and then the chicken. Spoon the sauce over the top and garnish with chives. Serve immediately.

CASSEROLE-POACHED CHICKEN W/ WHITE WINE TARRAGON SAUCE (JULIA CH
From Mastering the Art of French Cooking. Very moist chicken with a rich cream sauce. The sauce is so rich that I would follow Julia's recommendation of very simple sides that don't compete with the flavors at all... buttered peas and baked or mashed potatoes work well. This recipe looks very long, but is actually quite easy... just prep the bird and throw in the oven. The sauce comes together quickly at the end.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325, then cook the onions and carrots on the stovetop (in a casserole just large enough to hold the whole chicken) in 2 T butter until vegetables are tender but not brown.
- Rub the outside of the bird with 1.5T of the butter and place the other 1.5 T inside the bird. Sprinkle the outside with half of the salt and tarragon and the inside with the other half. Truss and arrange the chicken breast-side-up on top of the sauteed vegetables in the casserole.
- Pour the wine into the casserole and add enough of the chicken broth to reach about 1/3 of the way up the chicken. Add the herbs and giblets. Bring to a simmer on top of the stove. Drape the damp cheesecloth over the breast and thighs. It should be long enough to fall into the liquid on either side so that is will draw the broth over the chicken and basted it during the cooking. Smear remaining butter over cheesecloth and top with a layer of waxed paper. Cover casserole and set in the preheated oven.
- Bake chicken for 1 hour and 40 minutes. Watch to make sure that the liquid remains at a very soft simmer and adjust temperature accordingly if needed. When chicken is done (juices should run clear), remove chicken to a platter and strain the cooking juices. Return one cup of the stock to the casserole with the chicken. Cover to keep warm while you prepare the sauce.
- For sauce: Melt butter in saucepan, blend in flour with a wooden spoon and stir over moderate heat until butter and flour foam together for 2 minutes without browning. Remove from heat and as soon as it stops bubbling, add 2 cups of the hot chicken stock,, blending vigorously with a wire whisk.when smooth, set over moderate heat and stir slowly as sauce thickens and comes to a boil. Boil, stirring for 2 minutes. Sauce will be quite thick.
- Pour in 1/3 cup of the cream and add successive spoonfuls until sauce thins out but is still thick enough to lightly coat a spoon. Check seasoning and add salt, white pepper and lemon juice to taste. Just before serving beat in the remaining 2 T butter.
- Carve the chicken and top with the sauce.
