I liked this dish so much, I made it for
friends that came for dinner last week
As seen above
As seen above
It appears to be very rich, but really there
is only 100 mls cream and 30 gms cheese
Of course it took a lot longer cooking for
9, I didn’t race the clock then
Didn't time it
But it seems when I did it for 4, the "15 minute" version
15 minutes was too hard
By the way
This is a great way to cook chicken breasts
You know how easily they dry out
Well they were tender and moist
In fact I liked the method of seasoning and bashing so much,
I
carried through this prep and bread crumbed the breasts and the Children had a
wonderful Chicken and Chips dinner on Tuesday
They loved it
As I don’t have any fresh herbs on hand,
I
used the tube of Rosemary Paste,
warning this has wheat in it so not Gluten
Free, so to be Gluten free use fresh herbs
