This recipe for Polet a l’Estragon (French for “tarragon chicken”) appears in The First Ladies Cookbook: Favorite Recipes of All the Presidents of the United States and was submitted by Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy as one of her husband’s favorites. According to John F. Kennedy’s Presidential Library, none of JFK’s favorite foods could actually be verified, though baked chicken topped the list. It is said that President Kennedy was “a small eater and he often had to be reminded that it was dinner time.”
