Ingredients
- 2 whole (4 split) chicken breasts, bone-in, skin-on
- Good olive oil
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 1/2 cups good mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons dry white wine
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 3 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh tarragon leaves
- 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Place the chicken breasts on a sheet pan and rub the skin with olive oil. Sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is just cooked. Set aside until cool enough to handle. Remove the meat from the bones, discard the skin, and dice the chicken in large bite-size pieces.
Meanwhile, add the broccoli florets to a large pot of salted boiling water. Cook for 1 minute, until crisp tender, drain, and place into a bowl of ice water until cool. This will stop the cooking and set the bright green color.
For the dressing, whisk together the mayonnaise, wine, mustards, 1 tablespoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add enough sauce to the warm chicken to moisten well. Add the tarragon, broccoli, and tomatoes and mix gently to combine. Refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. Serve at room temperature.

We thought this was a great warm weather salad, however, the dressing is very rich. After reading the reviews I went ahead and doubled the amount of broccoli and cherry tomatoes. Added 1 cup of cooked elbow macaroni to cut the rich flavors. Then I made only half the dressing, used 1 teaspoon of dried tarragon and only used enough salt to taste. Thanks to all the people who gave such good advise on their reviews. This is a delicious meal.

This was OK. Not spectacular. I like all of the individual flavors and together it was fine, just not a stand-out recipe.

White vs. dark chicken meat...makes a difference in flavor. Thanks Ina.
