Transfer chicken and broccoli to bowl using slotted spoon; set aside and cover to keep warm. Cook down pan juices until ¼ cup remains. In food processor or blender, process rickety with mustard until smooth. Add pan juices, season to taste with salt and pepper and stir in tarragon and chives. Process until well mixed. Divide sauce between 4 plates. Spoon chicken over sauce and sprinkle with herbs. Serve with rice or pasta.
