Best Crock Pot Tarragon Chicken Recipes
CROCK POT ROAST CHICKEN IN TARRAGON CREAM SAUCE
Although it's a bit cumbersome, it is best to brown the chicken first, not only for eye appeal but because it releases some flavorful fat in which to soften the shallots and enrich the cooking liquid. While not absolutely necessary, the addition of brandy enhances the rich cream sauce that makes a superb accompaniment to simple boiled potatoes with parsley, mashed potatoes or plain steamed rice.

Steps:
- Rinse chicken inside and out and pat dry.
- Place lemon slices inside cavity along with tarragon and truss chicken loosely.
- (See Tip) In a skillet, heat oil over medium high heat.
- Brown chicken on all sides, using two wooden spoons to turn the bird so you don't puncture the skin, finishing with the breast side up.
- Turn off heat and pour brandy, if using, over chicken.
- Ignite and, when flames subside, transfer chicken to slow cooker stoneware.
- Drain off all but 1 tablespoons.
- fat in pan.
- Over medium heat, cook shallots until soft.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Add wine and chicken broth and bring to a boil.
- Cook until sauce is reduced by about one third, about 5 minutes.
- Pour over chicken, cover and cook on Low for 7 to 9 hours or on High for 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours, until juices run clear when pierced with a fork or a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh reads 170°F.
- Carefully lift chicken from liquid, transfer to a large heatproof platter and keep warm while you make the sauce.
- TO MAKE TARRAGON-CREAM SAUCE: Pour cooking liquid into a 4-cup heatproof measure and place in the freezer for a few minutes until the fat rises to the surface.
- Skim off as much fat as possible.
- Transfer remaining liquid to a saucepan and, over high heat, boil rapidly until sauce is reduced by half.
- Stir in tarragon and cream and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Serve in a sauce boat alongside carved chicken.
- TIP: I suggest trussing the chicken loosely for ease of browning and lifting.
- However, it is important to keep the string loose or the inner part of the thigh, which is less exposed to heat, will not cook properly.

CROCK POT LEMON TARRAGON CHICKEN
I really love a good roasted chicken seasoned with tarragon and chicken. So when I had a hanker for just such a dish but didn't want to heat up the oven and only had chicken breasts on hand this is what I came up with. This is so easy and so yummy. The whole family loved it!

CROCK POT TARRAGON CHICKEN
For ZWT8, A French Love Affair challenge. I am adapting Chocolatl's recipe#479544 to be made in the crock pot. My boneless thighs nearly disintegrated, lol. This would be good over pasta, rice or polenta! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **i increased the amount of flour as I needed to complete recipe **I increased seasonings corresponding to increased flour **I changed the frying chickens to thighs because thighs will be uniform in size & do well with long cooking. **I removed the skin but not necessarily the bone **I did NOT cut back on the liquid because I needed more flour **I changed margarine to butter **I made mushrooms optional ;) **I added an extra garlic clove & minced vs. chopped them
