Hints & Tips

Below we added some of our communities most common hints and tips. We hope you find them useful.

How to Batch

Cool within 2 hours of cooking, then divide the cooked recipe into individual servings and freeze immediately.

We recommend a reduced-fat cream cheese rather than a fat-free one here. The result is a little richer and stands up better to reheating if you plan on batch cooking this recipe.

Swap this

Use sundried tomatoes (they won’t need cooking but will be much higher in calories) instead of fresh tomatoes, or pork steak instead of chicken.

Delicious!

My sauce came out a tad thin so will either use less stock or add cornflour next time. My husband loved it too 🙂

WOW!! This was absolutely amazing

We did only use 300 ml of stock and it was perfect. So creamy, full of flavours. We served this just with garlic bread slices.

I always add a little extra water to the chicken stock as I like the sauce to go further

One of my absolute favourites deliciously creamy and tasty

I sometimes leave out the chicken and make it veggie, either way its simply delicious

I always reduce the amount of liquid as I find it can be a bit runny. It's easy to add in more water if needed.

Loved this did it in my ninja and turned out just perfect

Added a pinch of paprika but really didn't need anything extra. Easy dish to do and will go on on me favourites list 😋😋

Easy to follow recipe, so tasty

Cut the chicken into slices Served with wholewheat rice & seasonal veg.

Easy and fairly quick to cook- I used rice instead of pasta

Reduce the sauce plenty! Use Philly lightest to lower guilt!

I am a huge fan of Italian food but it can be quite heavy on syns with creaminess but this is excellent when you get creaminess from lightest Philadelphia. You may need to cook a little longer to reduce the sauce so it’s a bit thicker.

Creamy sauce

Only use 300ml water if you like a thicker sauce and use mini breast fillets rather than normal chicken breasts!

Tasted Delicious! Had to cook longer to reduce the sauce

I diced the chicken rather than leaving it as a whole breast and added 1 tsp of Bouillon served with Tagliatelle & Garlic Bread.

Very easy to make with bags of flavour.

Versatile dish which can be served with pasta, potatoes or just vegetables. I like to add mushrooms as I find they go well with this dish.

Creamy Tuscan Chicken is amazing !

I used 200ml less of stock and the consistency was perfect.

Wow... gone to Tuscan heaven!

This creamy dish is an excellent dinner party pleaser as well as a quick mid week meal. If you're short on time, dice the chicken and half the amount of stock.

This dish is lovely made with prawns too

This dish is lovely topped with lots of cracked black pepper!

Family favourite

This is one of our absolute favourites, I added slightly less stock and it thickens beautifully
