Slice chicken into cubes of 2 cm (3/4 inch). In a large non-adhesive pan or casserole, heat 15 ml (1 tablespoon) at medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 3 to 4 minutes, until lightly brown but the flesh still a bit pink. With the help of a spoon, set chicken in an oven bake-safe plate of 1,5 L (6 cups) or in a deep pie plate.
In the same pan, add remainings of oil and heat at medium heat. Fry sliced leeks, mushrooms and tarragon for 2 to 3 minutes. Cover and cook 3 minutes, or until vegetables softens. Spread flour and mix. Add chicken broth few drops at a time while stirring. Salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and stir for about 3 minutes, until the sauce thickers. Then with a spoon, pour over chicken.
Turn upside down the thawed puff pastry over the plate, press and pinch all around. Set 3 to 4 slits on top of the pastry. Bake in preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 20 to 25 minutes until the preparation starts boiling and the pastry browns.
