    This was easy and tasty - a little bit different. I did warm my spring onion sauce slightly in the microwave beforehand as I didn't really like the idea of pouring cold sauce over hot food.

    Very nice, will definitely make again. One to avoid if you don't like the taste of lime but we do and absolutely loved it!

    Cheated a bit and didn't add the beans or lime, but this was still an extremely tasty and simple meal to make.

    Yummy recipe! We added some chicken stock and thickened with some corn flour so we had extra sauce for the rice. Going on the menu for next week too. Thanks!

    Thought it was really nice but chicken lacked a bit of flavour - would season more next time.
