  This is just a fab recipe for a quick dinner party or a mid week supper, very easy to prepare and quite impressive on the table and the chicken is just so moist and tender 10/10 we eat it alot

  I did this for a dinner party and it was great. Very popular, everyone commented on how moist it was and it was so quick and easy to prepare. Will definitely be cooking this again.

  Very easy & delicious for a relaxed dinner party. Will definitely make again. I found it didn't need a drizzle of oil, the fat from the pancetta & butter was more than enough, just baste the onions halfway so they don't burn.

  this was quite tasty and simple to make but it was really oily and greasy,would be better without the oil and less butter.
