Tarragon Chicken Meatballs With Cream Sauce

Making these tasty chicken meatballs is like creating a great mix of flavours. Tarragon, which has a cool hint of anise (like licorice), adds something special and marries so well with chicken meat. It also goes well with the richness of cream and the tasty leek sauce. Using homemade chicken stock makes everything taste even better and shows you care about good ingredients.

Now, let’s talk about the chicken. Grinding or mincing your own chicken thighs is a big deal. It lets you decide how chunky or smooth the meatballs are, making them super juicy. Doing this at home guarantees good quality meat as you never know what to expect when buying pre ground.

Don’t forget, whether you’re using fresh or dried tarragon, it’s like adding a fancy touch to your dish. This recipe is not just about cooking; it’s like taking a taste adventure, and you’re the chef making it awesome! Keep it up in the kitchen!
