  An easy recipe although to speed things along I would par boil the rice first next time and can be done all on the hob (large wok) rather than the oven. Tastes good and is filling.

  very nice, forgot to cut the chicken into strips so cooked whole breasts but worked just fine anyway. I added 150g rice but would add 200g next time as I do tend to eat big portions!

  At first I thought this tasted quite bland but it actually started to taste better whilst I was eating it. When I make this next time I will leave it to stand for 10mins before eating to let the flavours develop.

  Very simple to make and my boys loved it but I thought it was lacking something - think I'll add some smoked bacon to it next time and I like someones idea of oven roasting the peppers 1st. Think that would make a world of difference.

  Loved the taste, but some of the rice wasn't cooked. Either more stock and more time when I do it next, or parboil the rice before mixing. Definitely do again, though.

  Took no time at all to put together and even my 4 year old ate it without having to be spoon fed! Definitely something I'll be making again.

  very easy to cook and not quite enough depth of flavour for us and some rice grains remained hard. Would try again but with more stock and extra garlic and spices.

  Definitely missing something for us. Needed a bit of kick as we thought it was a bit bland & gloopy so added chilli flakes. Won't do this again

  I think the taste of this was very nice but the portions sizes of some of the ingredients are surely too large. One whole pepper per person, considering there is also rice and chicken? And two tablespoons of pesto per portion just makes the taste of pesto overpower everything. I would say use half a pepper and two teaspoons of pesto per portion to improve the dish. I also used a mixture of peppers: green, red and yellow as I didn't have any orange.

  Super easy to make! I added in teaspoon of chilli flakes as suggested by other reviewers for some added bite, some zucchini and topped with lots of Parmesan. Yum!

  Oh. Excellent. Far more tasty than the level of effort requires suggests, easy to cook during that first glass of wine, more or less takes care of itself after the initial prep, and doesn't leave a lot of washing up. What's not to like? A couple of suggestions, though - we've found a stir halfway through the oven time and a little extra garlic are useful additions.
