A note about serious food allergies

Tarragon is a fresh herb whose narrow, soft leaves add delicate anise flavor to the light cream sauce served with this chicken. It's great for all seasons, but adds a perfect counterpoint to the fall flavors found in the miso-roasted carrots and pearl onions. With so much umami goodness on one plate, you won't believe such a delicious and satisfying meal is also low in calories and carbs.

Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F
  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Stem and coarsely chop tarragon. Peel, trim, and cut carrots into 1/2" diagonal slices. Rinse chicken breasts, pat dry, and season both sides with 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper.

  2. 2

    Start the Carrots

    Heat 2 tsp. olive oil in a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add carrots and pearl onions to hot pan and cook until vegetables begin to brown, 3-4 minutes. Whisk together miso, sugar, and 1/3 cup water in a small bowl.

  3. 3

    Finish the Carrots

    Add miso-sugar mixture to pan, cover, and reduce heat to medium. Cook until carrots are tender, 4-6 minutes. Remove cover, raise heat to high, and cook, stirring frequently, until liquid reduces to a sticky glaze, 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle with half the tarragon (reserve remaining for sauce). Cover and set aside. While carrots cook, start chicken.

  4. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat 2 tsp. olive oil in another medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken to hot pan and cook until chicken is browned and reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 4-6 minutes per side. Remove to plate, cover loosely with foil, and rest 5 minutes. Discard excess fat from pan and reserve; no need to wipe clean.

  5. 5

    Make the Tarragon Sauce

    Return pan used to cook chicken to medium-high heat. Add evaporated milk and 1 tsp. tarragon to pan. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring often, until thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon, 2-3 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Taste, and add more tarragon if desired.

  6. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Spoon sauce on plate and serve chicken over sauce. Arrange carrots and pearl onions next to chicken.
