  Just cooked this, followed the recipe exactly - even used chicken thighs (not a favourite in this house). The finished meal was incredibly rich and really didn't need a whole 200g of cream cheese, also the skin on the thighs was very soggy after being simmered, and unpalatable. I'd cook this again but substitute chicken breast (re *tip*), add more tomatoes and use 100g of a lower fat cream cheese.

  I've made the summer chicken one pot twice now. The second time I only used a tablespoonful of cream cheese, it was much improved as we found it too rich with the 200g. I also substituted the broad beans for soya beans. Very nice, this recipe will go on my binder!

  Boyfriend just made this for tea. We used chicken legs rather than thighs and didn't put in any tomatoes because we don't like them. Even with these changes it was delicious. I would certainly make it again. I felt the veg made it a light, summery dish and it was completely moreish. My boyfriend also really liked this dish.

  I went for a less fattening version of this and removed the bacon and using 75% less fat soft cheese. Tasted absolutely delicious with a bit of rocket but felt that that bit more than 400ml of stock was needed.

  Made it as a lunch for visitors - we loved it, but have to admit it is quite rich. would go for less cream cheese, or lighter version.

  Really lovely. Not keen on broad beans so I chopped some fine green beans instead. Also used skinless/boneless thighs, which worked well. Will be doing this dish lots over the summer I think.

  I read the previous suggestions so I only used 100gr low fat soft cheese, I omitted the bacon and at the end I used some fresh grated black pepper and some mustard powder. It came out delicious!

  Definitely agree on the cream cheese - 1/2 a tub was more than enough. I also used soya beans and it was lovely - really easy tasty dish

  Fantastic receipe, so quick and easy. I did change for low fat cheese and I added 600ml of stock and after adding potato stage I placed in the oven and cooked slowly - perfect. I also removed the skins from the chicken as the dish can look too 'fatty' when you serve it. My twin boys and daughter loved it, very simple and will def cook again. I would probably do this in my slow cooker too

  My fiance has made this twice now. First time following the instructions exactly (minus the tomatoes as he forgot to put them in! And using chicken breasts cut in half), second time with a Tesco very low fat cream cheese and mushrooms instead of tomatoes. Used tinned veg as well. We both preferred the first version. It was rich but really tasty. The low fat version was nice as well though. May try with the medium fat cream cheese next time when I can get him to cook it again! We served it with a tear and share garlic bread. Overall would really recommend this dish! Yummy! :)

  I prepared this for a dinner party before reading all the comments and suggestions. I used chicken breasts with not as much cheese and finished it off in the oven. I also cooked the potatoes separately My guests thought it looked and tasted marvellous. I will certainly cook it again using low fat cheese. For a family meal it's great with the potatoes added to the pot with chunks of bread to mop up the delicious sauce. So simple and easy to make but looks so impressive.

  I made this for my son and daughter-in-law and we all loved it! I did use a "light" version of the soft cheese and had plenty of bread for dipping! Fabulous!

  This is a lovely & simple summery supper. I made with chicken thigh fillets and substituted the cream cheese for a tub of half fat creme fraiche and a handful of grated Parmesan. Enjoyed by my 6yr old too. Will definitely be making again as so quick & easy.

  I really liked this meal, very tasty and light, but my husband found the sauce a bit too cheesy despite my using low-fat Philadelphia. I might try it using some creme fraiche next time.

  This recipe was great, really quick and easy. I used breasts instead of thighs, I also switched the full fat soft cheese for 'light' and only used half the amount. Think this will become a regular in our house.

  Just starting to REALLY brown things like the TV chefs and the chicken was crisp at the start. The skin was soft by end of the cooking, but certainly not unpalatable. Used the full 200g cream cheese and it was rich, but nicely so; will try the other suggestions here about creme fraiche and low fat (and less) cream cheese. This will be a favourite!
