Ingredients

Serves: 4

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 onions, one halved, one chopped
• 1 bay leaf
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1 baking potato, peeled and chopped
• 2 carrots, chopped
• 3 celery ribs, chopped
• 1/3 pound white mushrooms, quartered
• 1/3 pound thin green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces
• Salt and pepper
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 1/2 cup dry white wine (ask for a recommendation in the wine section)
• 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
• 1/2 cup frozen peas
• 3 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1/3 cup heavy cream

Preparation method

Prep: 20 mins | Cook: 15 mins

1. Bring a large Dutch oven full of water to boil over high heat. Turn heat down to low and add the chicken, halved onion, and bay leaf. Cook for about 18 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink inside. Drain and shred chicken.
2. Set Dutch oven back on the stove over medium heat. Stir butter into the pot. When butter melts, add chopped onion, potato, carrots, celery, and mushrooms. Cook for about 5 minutes to soften, then stir in green beans, salt and pepper, and flour.
3. Cook for 1 minute. Drizzle vegetables with wine and cook for 1 more minute, then add chicken broth.
4. When chicken broth comes to a boil, add peas, tarragon, and mustard. Stir well and allow to cook for 5 minutes. Add chicken and cream, heat through, and serve.
