I have very little context, it's an item on a menu, tariette de volaile. From Googling, it seems you can have tariettes of other poultry too.

medley/assortment
this just might be a medley, judging by this collection of assorted objects being sold on Ebay. I can see no other connection, and this guess is based on no culinary expertise - simply what may be an educated guess.
I'm tempted to say "mish-mash" but that could give the wrong idea!

oops, forgot the crucial "evidence":

Hmm! I don't think this backs up my suggestion, but it does seem here to be used as a qualifier for "Assiette printanière":
Assiette Printanière (tariette de provence)
this might at least help point you in the right direction...

Note from asker:
| Thanks Carol, I saw that E-bay listing but didn't make the collection connection :) I must admit that I have my doubts about "medley of chicken" - it sounds like a polite way to describe road kill :) |
| I've seen all those Google hits and found none of them useful! It's also some sort of exotic bird but that doesn't help much either. |

Like Carol, I have no expertise in this area and am basing my translation on a Google search.
In addition to the eBay link, I have found some sites that seem to imply that a "tariette" is a form of pottery.

Example sentence:
...l'intimité de chaque étalage proposant des tariettes, des poteries multicolores...

La tariette est une spécialité catalane (blanc de volaille et pomme de terre ).
Elle peut être appelée « Terrine catalane »
Example: http://lascierie.canalblog.com/archives/2009/10/30/15625895....
This is the first time I have seen it used for a recipe, however... Does this simply mean it is served in a colourful Provencal dish, or perhaps in several little pottery dishes like a dinette. Hard to know. Is there anyway you can ask the chef?
