Cooking Steps
Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Cut the potato (unpeeled) into 1cm wedges. Slice the carrot (unpeeled) into 1cm discs. Place the potato and carrot on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil, the salt and a pinch of pepper. Toss to coat, arrange in a single layer and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until tender. TIP: Cut the veggies to the correct size to ensure they cook in the allocated time.
While the potatoes and carrots are baking, pick the tarragon leaves and roughly chop until you have 2 tbs. Trim the ends of the green beans and chop in half.
When the potato and carrot have 15 minutes cook time remaining, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper on both sides and cook for 2 minutes on each side, or until lightly browned. Transfer the chicken to a medium baking dish (the chicken will finish cooking in step 5).
Return the frying pan to a medium heat and add the pure cream, Dijon mustard and tarragon. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until reduced slightly, 2-3 minutes. Season to taste with pepper. TIP: Dijon mustard and tarragon can be strong flavours, use less of each if you or the kids aren't fans!
Pour the tarragon sauce over the chicken and cover with foil. Bake until the chicken is cooked through, 10-15 minutes. TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside. While the chicken is cooking, wipe out the frying pan and return to a medium-high heat. Add the green beans and water and cook for 5-6 minutes or until tender.
Divide the chicken, potato wedges, carrots and green beans between plates. Spoon over the tarragon sauce and season to taste with a pinch of salt and pepper.
