  We loved this. The flavours were excellent, was easy to do and in just one pan - whats not to love! I did cheat and cooked it all on the hob rather than the oven and it worked just fine. Only thing I woud change is to make the peper slices smaller next time, might even follow Bev's advice and roast them first, that sounds appealing.

  Really enjoyed this recipe. Made with quorn for me and chicken for hubs. I used up leftover cooked chicken and he said it absorbed the flavour well. I added a few chilli flakes, and used arborio rice instead of long grain. It needed a little extra stock ... but very tasty. Yum yum. Easy and will make again.

  Fabulous mid week easy meal. The whole family enjoyed it. (Even the fussy eater!) Is sure to become a family favourite. I added a little extra rice, because we love it and 100ml of extra stock. Can't wait to make it again.

  Had this last night, very fussy husband loved it! So easy to make. I made a couple of changes and it was perfect for 2 adults..., Half the olive oil, chicken, peppers and tinned tomatoes Reduce rice to 80g Reduce stock to 250ml Reduce pesto (I used sundried tomato) to 2 heaped tsp Add 1tsp chilli flakes, fresh ground black pepper and sea salt Grated Parmesan on top to serve Other than that I followed the recipe and it was splendid!

  Tried this recipe for the first time tonight. Added mushrooms (as I needed to use them up) and only had red peppers, which were fine. Tasted the dish when I took it out of the oven and thought it was quite bland and missing something - then added 4 tablespoons of red sundried tomato pesto from a jar - YUMMY!! Will definately make this one again.

  Made this last night with chicken legs and worked a treat. I personally cooked everything in a large frying pan and then transferred to a shallow Pyrex dish for 20 minutes. PERFECT! You could also marinade the chicken in some of the pesto or put some underneath the skin to make it even more tasty!!

  We had this today and quite enjoyed it. Very nutritious and filling. I added mushrooms and a little chilli and black pepper, it ended up tasting a bit like a curry! Mine needed an extra 5 minutes in the oven as the rice wasn't cooked after 20 minutes. I also used 400ml of stock as i was worried it would get stodgy. I imagine we will have this once a month.
