Great delicious little dish.

Also could not add all trhe water, but thats OK, wife and i enjoyed it immensely.

Too much for just the 2 of us and will halve it next time.

Yumm thank you, hubby and I

Yumm thank you, hubby and I enjoyed this a lot. Couldn't add the full water amount to the jug though as it hi max level at about 650ml and had to add an extra 5 mins at the end as the chicken was still pink but it all worked well and tastes amazing.
