  We had this last night and it was very tasty. I used a tin of chopped tomatoes instead of fresh and doubled the quantities of olives and balsamic vinegar.

  We loved this. I used a tin of chopped tomatoes for convenience, & also made the same dish but with Quorn chicken pieces for my veggie daughter,& she really loved it. One other thing I did was to chop up the chicken breast into small chunks then cook it,rather than use the whole breast. Very tasty & lots of delicious juice to eat with your mash.

  Lovely sauce to go with chicken. Tasted really rich, maybe because of the balsamic vinegar. Served with mashed potato.

  Whole family enjoyed, which is worth a few stars! Used chopped toms like the rest of the world - obviously not many gardeners making this. Would have been too wet, but I put them through a sieve to get rid of the watery stuff and boiled the sauce for twice as long as the recipe suggested. Served with rice, french beans and baked mushrooms.

  I have done this recipe several times and really like it. I don't use basil but add a spoon of hot chilli powder instead or alternatively a couple of hot chillies, and it's really tasty. Tried both tinned and fresh toms and both worked for us.

  This was a big disappointment. I found the end result watery (although I reduced the sauce for longer than the recipe suggests) and the overall taaste was tomato. If I were making again (which I doubt I will) I would cook the sauce for far longer (without the chicken in it) and would douuble up on the other ingredients too to get their flavours in the dish.
