Tarragon Chicken Ragout Soup is a true Hungarian classic, enriched with the fresh, slightly citrusy flavor of tarragon. The real specialty of ragout soups is that fresh herbs, such as tarragon, can completely transform the flavor of the dish, making the soup uniquely delicious. The dish is traditionally made with chicken or other light meats that quickly soften in the flavorful broth.
Tarragon chicken ragout soup is not only rich but also nutritious and can be the perfect choice on a cold winter day when you crave a delicious, warm meal. The flavor of the dish is complex but harmonious, and the fresh herbs provide a refreshing experience in every bite.
Rinse the chicken and cut into small cubes.
Peel the vegetables. Slice the carrots, parsley root, and celery into rounds. Dice the potatoes.
Sauté the finely chopped onion in oil until translucent. Add the chicken and cook until lightly browned.
Add the vegetables, crushed garlic, and tarragon. Pour in the water.
Season with salt and pepper. Simmer over medium heat until the vegetables and chicken are tender.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, flour, and a little water until smooth. Gradually whisk the mixture into the soup.
Cook for a few minutes until the soup thickens slightly. Stir in the lemon juice.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley or extra tarragon.
