  This is a favourite and we've had it several times - tried it with sweet potatoes and that was ok. Last time I forgot to buy a lemon but had satsumas in the fruit bowl...it worked fine!

  Lots of flavour, light and the potatoes were a great alternative.

  I'm eating this as I type (dinner for one!) I added the garlic and it's very very tasty but the potaoes are still a bit hard after 30 mins. Think i'll par boil them for a couple of minutes first next time. I'm having it with spring greens. Yum.

  Really, really tasty potatoes, but the chicken was a little dry, but that might be because I cooked it for about 40 mins.
