I bought French tarragon for my garden to make this. Waited three months for it to establish and grow. No regrets - one of my best dinners ever! I’m a novice home cook and this was very easy to follow!

How was your experience growing tarragon? I live in TN. I’m wondering if it’s feasible to try it.

I’m in the Chicagoland area, I bought plugs this spring and they grew really well! Handled rainy hot humid weeks and a lot of neglect too. No. Regrets. Delicious with fish too.

Bought tarragon seeds and grew a couple of plants in my garden. Turns out they weren’t the seeds of French tarragon, rather they were of the Russian variety which neither tastes nor smells anything like the former. I later read that French tarragon is only grown from clippings and can’t be grown from seeds. Imagine my disappointment in realizing this! It makes for a cute little bush, though.

This chef is fun to watch. You learn not just what to do but why it should be done.

I made this, only this weekend for my girlfriend and her children ... it was briljant! We ate a whole chicken with bread, salad and garnish and it was lovely. Thank you, Stephane; this was out of this world: such a wonderfull dish and you learn to use all of the chicken. But the estragon ... wow!

My wife, Jeannie, and I, finally prepared this meal last week, and it was DELISH!!! Thank you. We're prepared to make one of your great French meals every week. My two daughters and my father enjoyed this meal tremendously. Again, Merci beau coup!!!

This is excellent, thank you! We froze the leftover amount and had it over noodles today. So delicious!

This is absolutely one of the best chicken dishes I’ve ever cooked. Thank you!

Tried it tonight! Had to go to three stores to find fresh tarragon. So worth it. Delicious!

I have just discovered this channel today while I was searching for 'how to prepare fennell' videos. This chicken in creamy tarragon sauce looks gorgeous. And I of course enjoyed your video on prepping and braising fennel. And I've watched you make Dauphinoise Soup too! So I guess I'm hooked! Thank you for sharing the wealth of your experience.

Hello from Mexico! I made the dish and I didn't have cognac, but I used tequila and white wine. I didn't have shallot, but used onion instead and my Tarragon was dried...Having said that, this dish was absolutely delicious. Thank you. I really enjoy your videos!

You just cooked Pollo Baracha. Drunken Chicken. Except for the wine.

I’ve been watching since the early days. I’ve made many of your dishes. I made this one for the second time. It’s so good. I used free range organic chicken from my friends farm. I added lions mane mushrooms. Pretty good !! Thank you! Aloha

I enjoy your preparation of this simple yet flavorful chicken and tarragon recipe. I think you have elevated the dish by using a basic Fresh cooking style. From the mirepoix, deglazing with spirits, infused cream, to extracting tarragon flavor in several steps, you have made French cooking techniques very approachable. I believe I could make this dish even without a diploma from Le Corden Bleu. You have opened my eyes to possibilities. Thank you. I especially enjoy your treatment of the cream. You infused it with flavor and then by reducing it managed to concentrate those flavors. Because it was cream and not just stock, you delivered flavor in a subtle way. I love that while it was served in a rustic style, it was easy to imagine passing the sauce through a chinois for a more refined presentation. All in all, good job!

Absolutely dreamy! Tarragon is a magical flavour.

Outstanding presentation, I’m looking forward to trying this recipe. Thanks

I made this last night. Used bone-in thighs for two. My wife was wowed by the sauce. Her comments were: smooth and balanced! I agree, the tarragon was subtle, not overpowering. Love it!!😎

I've ordered a chicken from my butcher. Tomorrow I will use half the bird to make Poulet a l'estragon. (Getting nice fresh tarragon is always difficult, I have tried growing it but it just doesn't taste the same as the tarragon imported to the UK from Israel). I will reserve the other half in the fridge to make my favourite Bistro style chicken in vinegar sauce. I live alone and hate freezing cooked chicken as it goes stringy and dry.👩‍🍳🤣

I love love French cuisine. I love France - cette recette a l'air exquise. merci beaucoup Stefan.

Chef Stephane is the kindest and most capable French chef I sub to. His academy is outstanding, too! Thank you, good sir! 🤌👌 🤝

I followed the recipe, but doubled it. I did the chicken browning in batches. The end result was fantastic. Thanks for showing us delicious and varied dishes!

He is amazing. Whether it's Coq au vin done the right way, or how to make a proper stock, his talent and passion shine through. This creation has convinced me to grow tarragon (estragon) in the garden this upcoming year. And I'm gonna make poulet a l'estragon.

Nous avions de l’estragon planté dans un pot sur le balcon, sans savoir quoi faire avec, jusqu’à ce que nous avons vu votre merveilleuse recette. Nous l’avons essayé ce soir et ça goûtait le ciel, quel délice! Merci beaucoup de nous illustrer si clairement comment faire!

an absolute star. made this just now. in the middle of the week. working from home and just a little wine. thanks for making my weekdays fun.

So love your cooking. Will be cooking for the family this weekend. Please keep the recipes coming, it is so good to cook proper French rustic cuisine!

I have spoken to many Frenchmen and they are condescending. But you channel shows me that many people love all all cultures and respect them. I have learned a lot of cooking from you and even more about your culture. Thank you for what you do

That sauce deserves a hearty chunk of good French bread to soak up what the chicken doesn't! I know what we're having for dinner tomorrow, I've already got the bread rising in the fridge.

What an excellent version of this dish...BRAVO!

I made this today. Fantastic! Delicate and so much flavor. Nothing smells more like French cooking than chicken, white wine, and tarragon.

This dish is just absolutely gorgeous

Alcohol cooks off. Alcohol gets the flavors in the dish to mix and mingle and flavor as it acts as a solvent. None is left.

Thank you so much for your recipes! I recently made your steak au poivre with a friend, it was delicious!! Can't wait to try this one, too. I would like to point out that what I really appreciate, besides the lovely French recipes, is that you dare to express the possible mistakes you may have made during the process (possibly overcooked chicken; possibly overcooked steak). I think this it is very important to consider mistakes as an inherent and essential part of cooking, and also not something to take too seriously.

Yum! I grow my own, just for Chicken! I will try this one soon!

Made this recipe this past weekend. It was brilliant and the sauce was so delicious.

Gorgeous recipe. My favorite way to have chicken. Nicely done Stephan.

We made this last night and it was amazing! Easy to make and the flavors...OMG! Well done!

I made this last night. The sauce hardly needed salt, it was full of flavour! The white wine and cognac, tarragon and cream were match made in heaven. I will definitely make it again when having guests around. Thank you Stephane 😊

I tried this last weekend. This recipe is my new favourite now. Many thanks for sharing !!!

Made this today, and it was AMAZING!! I

This is a truly delicious recipe. Last time I decided to make that dish, I realized at the last minute that I had run out of cognac. And since I had a full bottle of Madeira wine, I tweeked the recipe, using only Madeira wine and no white wine. The result was equally delicious. Different of course, but delicious.

Looks delicious.

This was one of the best dishes I've ever cooked at home. I can strongly recommend this to anyone who wants to prepare something special for their loved ones. Thank you for sharing your amazing recipes!

I’ve made this few times and it is so delicious.

I cooked this today and its superb! All was done on my slicker but on the stove top setting. A little variation or two...I don't have access to shallots, so I substituted green onions. Also, instead of cream, I used sweetened almond milk. Please don't hate me because it was great! This was the rehearsal for this Christmas dinner. Thank you!

This looks amazing.

Very good teaching on technique and taste. Thank you
