Comments
Excellent and very tasty, but my tomatoes seemed to disappear into a purée, maybe fresh whole tomatoes would be better?
Thank you.
Great recipe - really enjoyed it, thanks
Loved it! Increased cumin to 4 tsp and added a tbsp brown sugar. Will def make again and again.
Great recipe! Delicious and easy
LOVED this! I used cannellini beans and 700g of chicken. Served it with fresh bread rolls and garlic butter - clean plates all round.
The next day, we took some of the leftovers, reheated and then strained the excess liquid out and served it in the soft stand n stuff tortillas with sour cream and cheese.
Highly recommended.
Nice alternative to traditional Chilli Con Carne.
Very tasty and enjoyed by all at the dinner table.
thank you for sharing
Oh wow! I made this tonight, didn't have leftover chicken so I cooked 2 breasts first in oven with vegetable stock and water covering it. It was delicious. I used fresh tomatoes and fresh soaked chickpeas. Yum!
