Peach Brandy Chicken

Ingredients:

4 small to medium-size peaches

4 boneless chicken breasts, with or without skin

2 Tablespoons flour with pinch of salt and pepper

pinch of dried tarragon or sprig of fresh tarragon

3 ounces peach brandy

1/3 cup chicken stock

2 Tablespoons heavy cream

Heat butter in 12-inch non-stick saute pan; dip chicken in flour and saute skin side down, over medium to high heat, until brown (about 4 to 5 minutes). Turn breasts and cook another 4 to 5 minutes; thinner breasts might require less time. Remove breasts from pan and deglaze pan with chicken stock; add peaches, brandy, and tarragon. Reduce heat and cook approximately 2 minutes. Return chicken, along with any accumulated juices, to pan. Add heavy cream and cook until chicken is hot and cooked through. Place chicken on platter or plates and top with peaches and sauce. (If sauce is not quite thick enough after removing chicken, reduce quickly on high heat before pouring over chicken).
