Serve on a bed of rice with a green salad or steamed vegetables.
The subtle flavour of tarragon can be masked by the stock concentrate, therefore chicken stock is preferable. You could add more tarragon.

Followed the recipe exactly. Our whole family thought it was very bland and lacked in flavour.

I was really looking forward to this but opted for the ver juice and vinegar substitute. It went wrong as I didn't get the balance right and it was too heavy on the vinegar, I had used 50/50. Can you please tell me what proportions you use as I am keen to get this right.
