1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 ounce butter
4 chicken breasts
1 red onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 cup mascato wine
1 cup chicken broth
3/4 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 teaspoons lemon juice (fresh squeezed is what I use)
1 ounce fresh tarragon, chopped
salt and pepper, to season

Steps:

Heat the oil and butter in a heavy based frying pan over a medium-high heat. Sauté the chicken breasts for 3-5 mins on each side or until golden brown. Transfer to a plate.
In the same pan. in the same oil, butter mixture, gently fry the onion and garlic over medium heat until really soft, about 10 minutes.
Add the wine and simmer for a few minutes. Then add the broth, bring to boil and simmer for a minute before whisking in the cream, lemon juice, mustard and half of the tarragon.
Bring back to boil and whisk thoroughly.
Return the chicken to the pan cook for 7-10 mins or cooked through.
Scatter the remaining tarragon and season to taste with salt and pepper.
