Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Great recipe thank-you, made 4 large portions.
Even with 3 tablespoons of flour this didn't thicken enough for me to call a stew although it may thicken overnight? Might add gravy granules next time.
It would help if the 2 x water detailed in the ingredients list had written next to it which amount is for cooking the chicken and which one is for adding to the stew.
Looking forward to eating again tomorrow.
This is great made it a couple of times now. Am going to make the left overs into little chicken pies.
Thank you for your feedback. I'm so glad that you liked it. It has become one of my favourites to make

I made this yesterday.... Was so delicious, and a cheap meal too! Made two serves for a friend in hospital, and still fed our family of six with the remainder. Just added some rice to make it go further. New favourite!
Thanks so much for letting me know. I had everything added. Not sure what happened there, however I have amended the recipe.
