A French inspired dish I found in a back issue of BBC Good Food magazine. The recipe uses reduced fat crème fraîche but if you can't get that just use the full fat variety.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 tablespoon sunflower oil
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
7 ounces low-fat creme fraiche
1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 tablespoon coarse grain mustard
1/4 tablespoon dried tarragon

Directions

1
Heat oven to 400 degrees.
2
Heat the oil in an ovenproof pan.
3
Season the chicken breasts, then brown for 1 min on each side. Remove from the pan, then set aside.
4
Add the crème fraîche, mustards and tarragon to the pan, stirring to combine everything.
5
Bring to a simmer, then return the chicken to the pan, spooning some of the sauce over the fillets.
6
Lift into the oven, then bake for 20 mins until the chicken is cooked through and sauce bubbling.
7
Great with green beans and rice.
