  I made this for dinner yesterday and it was incredibly easy to make, the chicken was moist and delicious and the whole dish was very flavoursome. My OH thought the sauce would be thick and creamy which wasn't the case, but it will definitely be added to our recipe binder.

  Really delicious and easy midweek meal. I used half fat creme fraiche and chicken breasts which worked really well. I also added a few button mushrooms and reduced the quantity of peas to 200g as 250g seemed rather alot to me. Served with boiled rice. Will definitely make again.

  This was so, so easy and completely *gorgeous*. The fresh sweet herby spring onions and the sweet peas give this a real lift. As another commenter observed, the sauce is a thin one rather than creamy in texture, but we served it up on mash and it was absolutely perfect that way. Will make this on a regular basis, I suspect!

  Really like this - very easy. Thickened this up with cornflour as I thought the sauce was a bit thin. Also used cream instead of creme Fraiche.

  Added double cream first, then 1 tsp cornflour mixed with water to thicken the sauce. Served over egg noodles (ribbon noodles) excellent !

  Really, utterly delicious. Simplicity itself to make. Served with mashed potatoes and it was a really lovely and actually quite light meal ( the sauce is lighter than you would imagine)

  Lovely, a great all rounder, my hubby & daughter had this with veg & root mash, my son had leftovers with pasta. My kind of dish in these money tight times.

  Lovely - tasted delicious. I'm not sure I'd even bother with the chicken next time though - it didn't seem to add anything and I think it would be lovely without it! Nice with it though as well.

  Made this for my son and husband and was very easy, I used natural yoghurt instead of creme fraiche.

  I am eating it now and love it! Used 4 chicken breasts but used the amount of veggies as stated. Just because I like veggies and eating it alone. Baked potato a side works well, rice might too.

  Nice recipe, but nothing special. The sauce was thinner than I expected, but still nice enough. Not sure I will be in a rush to make this one again

  I cooked the recipe from memory and forgot the garlic, but it was delicious anyway. The peas give a lovely sweetness to the dish. I thought the sauce was going to be a bit thin so added a little flour before pouring in the stock. A simple, quick recipe with great flavours.

  Really nice but next time I will add cornflour to thicken the sauce before adding the creme fraiche at the end.
