Tarragon chicken breasts with buttered leeks from Herbal Kitchen: Cooking With Fragrance and Flavor by Jerry Traunfeld

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    One of my all time favorite recipes, the buttered leeks with tarragon is such a comforting flavor!

    With my garden tarragon still going strong, this was on the menu. It's a good version of the classic chicken and tarragon pairing, though my enormous chicken breasts needed more time to cook. The leeks were delicious.

    p.113. Delicious and holds fairly well if made in hour before guests arrive. Made this from an Epicurious recipe before I had the cookbook, for Robbie on a visit in March 2009. Per reviewer comments, topped with thin strips of roasted red pepper for color contrast.
