This ended up being one of the easiest and best chicken recipes I've used recently Instead of one tablespoon of lemon juice I ended up using the juice of a whole lemon. I had forgotten to preheat the oven and wanted to really sear the breasts first so I needed the extra lemon juice to ensure nothing burned. I also used bouquet garni instead of straight tarragon. The flavor ended up being quite good from the mix of herbs. My husband and kids were quite happy with it and I couldn't believe how easy it was. I'm definitely going to experiment with this one! Thank you!

I was a little skeptical at first of this recipe but the reviews were good so I made it and IT IS THE BEST!! The chicken is very tender and very tasty. I am always trying to find stuff my 3 year old will eat and she loved it as we did too!!!
Very good and tasty. I had to cook mine an extra 10 minutes though. After 15 they were still pink inside.
Fabulously easy and fast...for people who worry about the lack of flavor I have found that fresh garlic adds wonders. I also used the McCormick Grill Mates (Montreal) spice blend. It was a fantastic way to moisten up the dish by pouring some of the leftover butter mixture directly onto the chicken. Yum yum!
This is a perfect "guideline" recipe. You can add almost any sauce to the basic recipe and have good results.
I will make chicken this way from now on. I used this recipe to make chicken to top a lettuce salad. The chicken was delicious and tender--not crusty or difficult to cut for the kids.
very good basic guideline recipe. I did not have dried tarragon but basically took the chicken breasts placed in a glass dish sprinkled with kosher salt dash of garlic salt dashes of onion powder dash of Mrs Dash splashed some lemon juice over them and smeared with softened butter. I didn't have parchment paper so I covered with aluminum foil and cooked for 30 minutes. removed aluminum foil and baked for about another 5 minutes while I steamed broccoli in the bag. very flavorful and moist! usually my chicken is pretty dry...
I have 3 kids who hate chicken but they LOVE this recipe! I pound the chicken breasts first which makes it harder to squeeze into the skillet but I find it helps cook them more evenly and quickly. I also use more lemon juice than suggested to prevent the butter from burning and mix it up on the herbs depending on what I have. A great basic recipe...thanks!
My husband has to be on a restricted diet...he thought this would mean bland food but this chicken was tops for him.
