- Basting the chicken with juices from the pan every 20-30 minutes will keep the meat moist and flavorful.
- Use fresh tarragon if possible for a more vibrant flavor.
- Let the chicken rest for at least 10 minutes after roasting before carving to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
