1 head garlic
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into thick strips
1 1/2 pounds potatoes peeled and cut into chunks
3 medium carrots trimmed and sliced
2 leeks medium, trimmed and thickly sliced
3 1/2 cups chicken stock
2 tablespoons fresh tarragon

1
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0F. Place the head of garlic on a baking sheet and roast it for 35-40 mins until it's soft.
2
Meanwhile, heat half the butter and half the oil in a large pan. Add the chicken strips and cook, stirring frequently, for 4-5 mins until brown. Remove them with a slotted spoon and set them aside. Heat the remaining oil and butter and add the potatoes and carrots and cook, stirring frequently, for 3-4 mins, then add the leeks and cook for a further 2-3 mins or until the leeks are lightly browned and the potatoes are beginning to soften.
3
Return the chicken to the pan and stir in the stock and tarragon, and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20 mins until the vegetables are soft and the chicken is cooked.
4
Allow the garlic to cool slightly, then squeeze the soft flesh from each clove and stir it into the soup. Serve with crusty bread, if desired.
