78 Reviews of Tarragon Chicken Casserole

From: Avarah

On Mar 27, 2003

Super fast, super simple yet highly tasty meal made from things I always have in the house! I've made this recipe 3 times in the past month (hubby LOVES it), and been thrilled with it each time. The onions are amazingly yummy and I love the crunch of the almonds. The 2nd time I made it I added a scant quarter-cup of sherry and the 3rd time I made it I added the sherry and a small can of sliced mushrooms. I think I'm done adding to what's already a top notch recipe. Oh, and I also do it in the crock pot for 8 hrs on low. I think it would be wonderful with just simple buttered noodles on the side, although so far I've only served it with brocolli (good) and asparagus (even better!).

    Wonderful, Wonderful! The only thing I did different was to cut the salt to 1/4 teaspoon since the cream of chicken soup has plenty of salt for my taste. Since I was out of slivered almonds, I used pine nuts instead. I used plenty of fresh tarragon out of my herb garden. I served this dish over brown rice. Thank you, Papergoddess, for sharing this wonderful recipe. I will be making this over and over again.

    This was a great recipe!! I, like the others, omitted the salt from the recipe. I also added some green peppers with the onions served it over white rice. This was a excellent Sunday dinner!!

    Another good papergoddess recipe!! I really like tarragon so this suited me fine!! I found it a bit too salty from the cube chicken stock so I will not be using that again. I'll probably substitute wine!!

    Very good! I even made this with non fat milk and low fat soup; served this over white rice. Easy.

    What a great combination of taste and textures! I used a white onion and 1/4 cup slivered almonds. I hovered between 4 stars or 5 - it was just a tad too salty. I think next time I'll leave out the 1/4 t salt. I didn't season the rice, and that helped. But, OH the overall taste was fantastic. Decided it definitely deserved 5 stars. Thanks papergoddess!

    I agree, Merlot. That should be edited. I don't know how it got in there, but that is definitely TOO much salt! Thanks for pointing it out, and for the great review. Glad you liked it.

    After reading the rave reviews on the sauce, I decided to double it, and it's a good thing! There was barely enough, after it was served over rice. I didn't use any almonds since I didn't have any. It was good, but not quite as good as I was expecting after reading the other reviews. Probably personal taste, though, and not the recipe.

    I made this with a package of 4 chicken breast halves, weighing closer to 1 lb than 2. They all fit in an 8 X 8-inch pan. I didn't reduce the sauce and there was plenty, but there might not have been enough if I had made the recipe as written. I forgot to add the almonds, so I just toasted some for a few minutes separately and sprinkled them over the top afterwards--tasted the same probably and added a little elegance to the appearance. I also served them on a bed of egg noodles. Excellent and easy.
