Cook your chicken so it's moist with a crispy skin and serve with mixed greens and a creamy tarragon sauce

2 chicken breasts, skin on
1 tbsp olive oil
200g new potato, thinly sliced
500ml chicken stock
200g pack of mixed spring vegetables (broccoli, peas, broad beans and sliced courgette)
2 tbsp crème fraîche
handful tarragon leaves, roughly chopped

STEP 1
Fry the chicken in the oil in a wide pan for 5 mins on each side. Throw in the potatoes and stir to coat. Pour over the chicken stock, cover and simmer for 10 mins until the potatoes are almost cooked through.
STEP 2
Remove the lid and turn the heat to high. Boil the stock down until it just coats the bottom of the pan. Scatter the vegetables into the pan, cover again and cook the veg for about 3 mins.
STEP 3
Stir in the crème fraîche to make a creamy sauce, season with pepper and salt, if you want, then add the tarragon. Serve straight from the pan.
