Creamy Mustard & Tarragon Chicken
This creamy chicken dish is a delightful blend of tender chicken breasts cooked in a flavorful sauce made with crème fraîche, Dijon and wholegrain mustard, and a hint of tarragon. The dish is then oven-baked to perfection, resulting in juicy chicken and a rich, creamy sauce that pairs perfectly with green beans and rice.
