4 chicken breasts, boneless skinless
1 cup bread crumbs
2 large cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon minced flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh tarragon
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 large egg
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3/4 cup flour
1/4 cup olive oil
4 fresh tarragon sprigs
Servings: 4
Place chicken between two pieces plastic wrap and pound gently to even thickness. Line baking sheet with wax paper. In shallow dish, mix together bread crumbs, garlic, parsley, tarragon, salt and pepper. In another dish, beat egg with mustard. Place flour in third dish. Dredge each chicken breast in flour; dip in egg and then bread crumb mixture, covering completely and patting so crumbs adhere. Place on baking sheet (can be prepared ahead, covered with plastic wrap and refrigerated several hours or overnight). Place oil in large nonstick ovenproof fry pan; heat over medium high heat. Add chicken and brown well on both sides. Remove to 350F. oven and bake just until chicken is cooked through, about 7 minutes, turning once. Transfer to serving plates; garnish each with tarragon sprig.
