  Very good: easy to make and a nice change from the recipes that use cream with chicken and tarragon. Make sure not to use to much salt, as the bacon, olives, etc, add quite a lot already. It was suggested that the chicken be served on a 'bed of spinach' - we didn't try that but it would probably be nice.

  I liked it a lot, my boyfriend hated the taste of the tarragon though - so not for everyone! The sauce was incredible!

  i dont think this needs salting ,,, the bacon made it salty enough, so be aware , apart from that it was a hit with my family, we had the crusted mustard potatoes with baby corn and sugar snap peas delicious....with defo make it again..

  Can you make this ahead & reheat? Does it freeze?
