      1. Step 1: Start by salting the chicken breast on the skin side.
      2. Step 2: In a skillet or heavy-based pan, add a good glug of olive oil and the chicken skin side down and turn the heat to medium-high.
      3. Step 3: Fry the chicken in the pan on the skin side until you have a good golden colour, at this point it should be almost cooked through.
      4. Step 4: Once you have good colour on the skin side, flip the chicken and cook for 2 more minutes before removing and setting aside.
      5. Step 5: Add the sliced shallots to the pan and saute for 3-4 minutes before adding the chicken back in skin side up and deglazing the pan with the white wine.
      6. Step 6: After the wine is reduced by half, add the cream and mix it in.
      7. Step 7: Finish the sauce with the juice and zest of a lemon, fresh black pepper and chopped tarragon.
      8. Step 8: Goes well with mashed or steamed baby potatoes and some steamed greens.
      9. Step 9: Enjoy!
