Very good! I was leary of the tarragon... it gave it a very curious but good flavor that I didn't expect. I used half regular onion cause I ran out of green, so I cooked them a bit in the butter to soften them up. I also used Smart Balance spread, but would like to try the unsalted butter (didn't have any unsalted on hand). I used sherry, but only 1 cup as it seemed moist enough. (If I needed more, I think I'd fill in with chicken broth cause it had just a subtle sherry flavor and more would be too much.) I cooked it in the oven for an hour, with a lid, and it didn't need any longer than that, but I did remove the lid and cook a hair longer to crispy the top a bit. The only bad thing is I hate ripping up bread - might try getting the plain bagged croutons, and see if more liquid and cooking with the lid softens them up, cause I love the flavor. And I didn't make it for any holiday - don't feel like I need one to be allowed to eat something. :-) So it was just a chicken meal. (I do consider this is more like 8 servings, or 12 at most. It's only 24 if everyone gets only a big spoonful.)
