The chicken was slightly over cooked here, you could definitely lose a few minutes in the oven, and the sauce not really right at all… I’m not sure the creme is really necessary at all, but I’d definitely massively reduce the amount. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Otherwise, this is a delight. It really infused the chicken with garlic and herb, and the crisp of the skin is wonderful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Definitely a go to recipe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
