Spicy Tarragon Yogurt Chicken - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 bunch fresh tarragon sprigs, leaves only
    1/2 cup plain Greek-style yogurt
    1/4 cup harissa sauce (see footnote for recipe link)
    2 garlic cloves, peeled
    2 tablespoons vinegar or citrus juice
    1 tablespoon ground cumin
    2 teaspoons kosher salt
    4 large chicken breast halves
    1/4 cup harissa sauce, for garnish
    4 sprigs tarragon, for garnish
Preparation
    Combine tarragon, Greek yogurt, harissa sauce, garlic, vinegar, cumin, and salt in a blender. Puree until smooth, scraping down sides as needed. Pour marinade over chicken breasts in a shallow dish, thoroughly coating both sides. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours.
    Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
    Remove chicken breasts from the marinade and place on the pre-heated grill. Cook over medium-high heat until dark grill marks appear, about 7 minutes per side.
    Garnish with harissa sauce and a sprig of tarragon.
