Heat the oil in a skillet large enough to hold the turkey fillets in one
layer. Over moderate heat, saute the turkey pieces, turning occasionally,
until well browned. Remove to a warm place.

Saute the minced shallot and garlic in the skillet juices 3-4 minutes,
stirring frequently until soft. Stir in the flour, a little at a time, to
make a smooth paste and cook 1 minute, stirring; then gradually stir in a
little of the chicken stock, continuing until the stock is used up and the
sauce is smooth and quite thick.

Return the turkey pieces to the pan, season with a little salt and fresh
pepper to taste, spoon the sauce over the turkey, and sprinkle tarragon on
top. Cover and simmer over very low heat about 5 minutes more. Stir in the
yogurt and heat, but do not boil.

Spoon the sauce over the fillets and serve.
