Method:

Slice each breast in half lengthwise. Arrange in one layer in a large saucepan. Add enough water to just cover chicken. Add salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high, about 6 min. Flip chicken and reduce heat to medium. Simmer vigorously until cooked through, about 6 more min. Remove chicken to a plate to cool.

Stir mayo with tarragon, lemon juice and zest in large bowl until blended. Using 2 forks, shred chicken into strips, then stir into mayo mixture along with celery, grapes and onion. Cover and refrigerate up to 2 hours before serving.

Cut baguettes in half lengthwise. Lay overlapping lettuce leaves on bottom halves. Scoop about 2 cups chicken mixture over each. Top with other half of baguette. Cut each into 3 sandwiches. Wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Serves 6
