Original Recipe Yield 4 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
  • 1 tablespoon lemon pepper
  • 1 cup dry vermouth
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh tarragon
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

  1. Generously sprinkle the chicken breast halves with lemon pepper. Place chicken, vermouth, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and tarragon into a large resealable plastic bag. Place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 6 hours, or overnight.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken breasts on both sides in the hot oil. Pour 1/2 cup of the marinade into the skillet, reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink.

Footnotes
