Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oil in a frying pan, preferably non-stick. Add the chicken and fry without moving it until it takes on a bit of colour. Turn the chicken and cook on the other side. Continue cooking for 12-15 mins until the chicken is cooked through. Season all over with a little salt and pepper.

  • step 2

    Halve the tomatoes and throw them into the pan, stirring them around for a couple of minutes until they start to soften. Reduce the heat and stir in the pesto and crème fraîche until it makes a sauce. Scatter with a few basil leaves if you have them, then serve with rice and salad or mash and broccoli.

it's nice considering how simple it is to make. great with pasta. doubled the tomatoes as they're the main source of the depth in taste.

question

Could I do this in slow cooker

Hello, we haven't tested this recipe in a slow cooker. As an estimate it would take about 4-6 hrs on low. Alternatively if you search for 'slow cooker chicken' recipes in the website search bar there are lots of chicken recipes that have been tested in a slow cooker. Thanks for your question - Good…

Only ok tbh. Too much pesto. Not flavoursome enough. Family liked it though and it was very quick.
