Ingredients:
4 chicken breast halves
1 cup raspberry vinegar or 1/2 cup wine vinegar
1/2 cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon fresh lemon rind, grated
2 shallots, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon leaves
black pepper

Directions:
Remove excess fat from chicken breasts; place them in sealable plastic bag or non-aluminum bowl.
Combine remaining ingredients; pour evenly over chicken breasts.
Seal bag or cover bowl; marinate in refrigerator 4 hours or overnight.
Turn occasionally.
Remove chicken from marinade, reserving marinade.
Arrange in one layer in greased 9×13-inch pan.
Pierce skin in several places with sharp knife.
Cover with foil.
Bake at 350 F for 30-35 minutes, or until mostly cooked through; in the mean time, bring reserved marinade to a simmer in a small saucepan, simmering 15 minutes.
After main cooking time, uncover chicken and baste with marinade every 5 minutes until chicken is cooked through, approx 15-20 minutes.
For OAMC or freezing ahead, freeze this chicken, raw, in marinade -OR- freeze after cooking, making sure to include a portion of the cooking juices with each breast (keeps chicken moist while thawing).
