Preparation
Make the mash
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil.
- Peel and medium-dice the potatoes.
- Add to the pot of boiling water and boil, 14 to 16 min., until very tender.
- Reserving ½ cup cooking water (double for 4 portions), drain and return to the pot.
- Off the heat, add 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions).
- Mash, gradually adding the reserved cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency; season with S&P.
Cook the chicken

Roast the green beans
- Meanwhile, remove the stem ends of the green beans.
- On a lined sheet pan, toss with a drizzle of oil and S&P.
- Roast, 5 to 8 min., until crisp-tender.
Make the sauce & coat the chicken
- Meanwhile, pick the tarragon leaves off the stems; finely chop the leaves.
- To the pan of chicken, add the mustard, cream, demi-glace and ¼ cup water (double for 4 portions).
- Cook, spooning the sauce** **over the chicken, 2 to 3 min., until slightly reduced and thickened.
