Heat 2 tsp. olive oil in another medium non-stick: pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken to hot pan and cook until chicken is browned and reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 4-6 minutes per side. Remove to plate, cover loosely with foil, and rest 5 minutes. Discard excess fat from pan and reserve; no need to wipe clean.

Make the Tarragon Sauce: Return pan used to cook chicken to medium-high heat. Add evaporated milk and 1 tsp. tarragon to pan. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring often, until thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon, 2-3 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Taste, and add more tarragon if desired.

Add miso-sugar mixture to pan, cover, and reduce: heat to medium. Cook until carrots are tender, 4-6 minutes. Remove cover, raise heat to high, and cook, stirring frequently, until liquid reduces to a sticky glaze, 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle with half the tarragon (reserve remaining for sauce). Cover and set aside. While carrots cook, start chicken.

Plate the Dish: Spoon sauce on plate and serve chicken over sauce. Arrange carrots and pearl onions next to chicken. recipe–it has bigger grains and is easier to pinch than table salt, allowing more control over flavor. If using regular table salt, reduce measured amounts twice. Half is added to carrots, and 1 tsp. is added to sauce.
