I made a couple of mistakes. Firstly then lentils stuck to the bottom of the pan and burnt without cooking thru. Secondly the dish really needed another 10 mins to cook thru so that the chicken came off the bone more easily. Next time i try it I'll stir the dish occasionally to keep the lentil moving.

Lovely and filling. I agree with others' posts, and found the lentils took a longer cooking time than the recipe suggests. This has now become a family fave, which is tricky in a house of fussy monkies! I use chicken thighs, which stay nice and moist.

I have made this several times and my husband & I love it! Can't believe something this tasty can be healthy! I ususally substitute peppers for the mushrooms, and find just using extra stock to replace the wine is fine. I do cook this for an hour and a half to soften the lentils.

I've made this a few times and I wouldn't change a thing about it. Delicious.

Hearty, tasty, healthy.
I made double quantities and next time will add just a little more wine and then up the stock to balance it.

I liked this recipe but I wish I'd added more than the suggested amount of chicken thighs! Remember - these are small! I will definitely make this again, but with more chicken.

Really great. Used slow cooker 4-6 hrs on low and boiled lentils for 5 mins first. Flavours melded well and lentils provided great texture.

fantastic tasty recipe.

I made this with chicken breasts and it was delicious. Will definitely make it again.

This is a really tasty recipe with lots of flavour, I did find the lentils needed a little more cooking time and I had to add a lot more stock than was recommended. Served with some jersey royals, would definitely make again!

Have made this loads of times now and varied it each time. Sometimes with potatoes or rice and varied the mushrooms or added different veg. Really tasty quick dinner.

Yummy healthy option. We're not drinkers so ditched the wine. Also added a pinch of Sage and a couple of bay leaves. Very well received!

A tasty filling meal great for when you're on a healthy eating plan.

made this a few times now - without mushrooms! its delicous, really easy and so so tasty! I added carrots to include an extra portion of veg (added at the same time as lentils) served with mash and greens. becoming a firm family favourite!!

Done this many time with variations - I make it spicy with cayenne pepper, I consider bacon and wine optional, and I occasionally add carrot and/or celery on the begging. I also don't use flour, and I use fresh chopped tomatoes instead of purée.

Great taste and can't believe something so healthy tastes so good!

hearty but tooo tomato pureeeey for me. Would repeat with tinned toms instead next time and if that doesn't work tined toms and a little tom puree. I the healthy aspect and so will give it another whirl with changes.

made without mushrooms (yuck!) and served with mash and veg. DIVINE. so easy and tasty, thyme was lovely in it. definitely making again

I was unable to get dried green lentils and substituted tinned lentils. I cut down the stock and added the lentils 15 minutes before the end of cooking, and it was fantastic.

My whole family enjoyed this meal, I will definitely be cooking this recipe again.

Delicious, one of the best recipes I've tried so far.
