Categories: Poultry, Vegetables, Herbs
Yield: 4 servings

+=OR=+
2 ts Dried tarragon)
3 tb Extra virgin olive oil
2 ts Garlic; minced
1 1/2 lb Chicken breast cutlets
Salt & pepper
14 oz Can whole, peeled tomatoes
1/4 c Water
1 Shallot; diced
2 ts Balsamic vinegar
Salt & pepper
* You can easily swap out the tarragon for fresh basil.
MAKE GARLIC TARRAGON OIL: In a medium bowl, combine 2
Tbsp olive oil, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, and 1 Tbsp of
chopped fresh tarragon (or a teaspoon of dried
tarragon).
If your boneless, skinless chicken breasts are not
already in cutlet form, slice them in half horizontally,
or place them between two pieces of plastic wrap and use
a meat pounder to pound them to an even 1/2" thickness.
Sprinkle the cutlets with salt and pepper. Add them to
the olive oil, garlic, tarragon mixture. Let sit at room
temperature while you prepare the sauce and heat the
grill.
Prepare your grill for high, direct heat
MAKE THE TOMATO TARRAGON SAUCE: While the grill is
heating (whether it be charcoal or gas), prepare the
sauce. Place the canned tomatoes in a food processor or
blender and pulse until pur|-ed.
In a medium saut|- pan, heat a tablespoon of olive oil on
medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the minced
shallots and garlic and cook until just fragrant, less
than a minute.
Add the pur|-ed tomatoes and water to the shallots and
garlic. Add the balsamic vinegar and 1 Tbsp of chopped
fresh tarragon (or a teaspoon of dry tarragon). Add salt
and pepper to taste. (If the sauce seems too acidic, you
can add a pinch of sugar to balance the acidity.)
Bring to a simmer and lower the heat to maintain a very
low simmer while you grill the chicken.
Grill the chicken cutlets until nicely browned and
cooked through, about 2 minutes per side, less or more
time depending on how thick the cutlets are.
Serve with tomato tarragon sauce.
