Preparation steps

1.
Preheat an oven to 350°F / 180º C. Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush lightly with olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Bake until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a servings platter.
2.
Meanwhile, grate 1/2 teaspoon zest from the lemon. Halve the lemon and squeeze 2 teaspoons juice in a small bowl. Set the zest and juice aside.
3.
Lightly pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness. Pat completely dry with absorbent paper towels. Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper.
4.
Heat the canola oil, in a large skillet set over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until cooked through and golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let stand for 5 minutes.
5.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the lemon zest and juice, tarragon, and mayonnaise, season with salt and pepper. Mix until smooth.
6.
Finely chop the chicken. Add to the chicken to the mayonnaise mixture and toss until thoroughly blended. Spoon a tablespoonful of salad onto each prepared crostini, garnish with arugula and serve.
