members' comments

JD - this is absolutely delicious and one I certainly am going to share with visitors. I did saute the onion, garlic and red pepper - apart from that followed it to a T.  Served it with a slice of swiss rosti cake & steamed vegies - yummo!
I took it to a party recently and everyone loved it Robyn - they enlikened it to sweet & sour chicken.

Yvette - delicious, nice and tasty cooked the day before and left in fridge - just cooked white rice with it. I added about half teaspoon of turmeric.

faffa - was a winner with all - so easy and quick too. Thanks johnro.

Chelsea - this is really tasty and easy. Thanks Robyn. My tweaks were chopping the capsicum in with the onion and garlic, cooking the onion etc off with some oil and adding the chicken in later (in with the mushrooms).

maddy - ......and tasty it was! Loved it, thanks Robyn. Stuck to the recipe but used the whole red capsicum, added a 1/2 packet of baby spinach in for the last 3 minutes of cooking and increased the chicken to 800 gms.

cookie - I cooked the rice and then put it in the thermoserver. I cooked the chicken in the frypan (quirky family) while I did the sauce in the TMX. I reduced the cooking time for the sauce as it didn't have the chicken in. It was really nice and we loved it.

dede - it was very tasty and better still, everyone loved it. Thank you so much for sharing. This is going into my folder of tried and loved recipes.

girlfromperth - this was so tasty.

Lady Ding - Thanks! My family loves this Tasty Chicken!

CC - it's delicious.

Foxx - Thanks Johnro for this superb recipe. We all loved it here.

Kiki J - everyone really enjoyed it! The only thing I did different was to chop up the mushrooms into itty little bits so the kids couldn't see them ... Thanks!  Will be making this one again.

deedub - I really enjoyed this dish - unfortunately the little fuss pots didn't but that's not unusual - they are so hard to please. Never mind, meant I got leftovers the next day!

Amy - It is indeed very Tasty Chicken Robyn, thank you very much for the recipe.

JuliaC83 - I had chicken breast in the fridge so used that in place of thighs. Therefore it shredded up a bit. Very tasty though. Served it with a side of steamed silverbeet/broccoli/carrot. Yum.

JD - a result of the school year nearing an end - there is something exciting to dwell upon rather than the next assessment which needs to be edited and/or marked.  Cheers - R  :)

This looks delicious. This warm weather has knocked my cooking mojo around. All I can be bothered doing is icecream and sorbets, grills and salads. Must start doing some Christmas stuff for the freezer soon though.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
