  I thought this was too simple to be good - but it was phenomenal! Especially with some decent bread to mop up the juice. I also used a mix of yellow/red tomatoes, good quality that looked beautiful.

  Excellent and impressive dish that always goes down well with guests. I am not keen on tomatoes so substiture them for red and yellow peppers.

  Have made this 3 times now. Extremely tasty and easy to make. I used Serrano ham, and served it with broccoli as well as crusty bread.

  Yum, I used thyme rather than basil, left out the beans and had it with roast potatoes instead - delicious!

  Really delicious - much better than I thought it would be! The flavours were perfect together. Actually, the sauce was tastier than the chicken meat itself!

  Good recipe, went down well! I use boneless chicken thighs and wrap them tightly with pancetta. I found that the whole heads of garlic didn't cook enough and were too much anyway, so just put in a handful of unpeeled garlic cloves instead.

  Tasted fab. Also, served with crusty bread & broccoli. Added a little of the veg cooking water to loosen the sauce. Would definitely make again!

  I made one thigh and one drumstick per person (could only get a mixed packet at Tesco's that night) and reduced the tomatoes slightly to feed three. It was just right, with a tiny bit of leftover for my lunch the next day! The only criticism I have is that it could have done with a few extra minutes without the tinfoil at the end, maybe 40-45, as my juices were still quite runny, and much improved and thicker the next day after reheating. But I guess it also depends on how juicy the tomatoes are, how much water is in the chicken, your oven etc.

  This was scrummy! Lovely for summer, and good for you too. One can of canneoli beans wasn't enough for 4 people though, the plates looked bare, so next time I'll definitely be sticking two in.
