• When the chicken has browned nicely turn the thighs over and cook for another 2 minutes. Then remove from the pan until the sauce has been made.*If there is a lot of residue from frying the thighs, dump the oil and start with a clean pan
• Add the shallots, garlic mushrooms to the pan and saute for 5 minutes until the mushrooms have cooked. Don't let the garlic or shallots burn.*add more oil if needed
• Deglaze the pan with the wine and marsala.
• Add the tomato paste, chicken stock, beef stock, and tarragon to the pan. Bring to a boil, then add in the cream. Allow the mixture to cook for another 1-2 minutes.
• Add the browned chicken thighs to the pan, leaving the tops exposed. Reduce the heat to simmer, cover and cook for 45 minutes.
• If the sauce isn't thick enough allow it to reduce a little longer. If the sauce is too thick add a little water.Garnish with chopped parsley.
