I was determined I was not going to like our Monday night mustardy chicken bake; too rich and creamy for me. I am happy to announce I was wrong. This simple dish is packed full of chicken (pre-cooked, which makes things even easier on a weeknight) that combineswith the creme fraiche to create a surprisingly light, saucy dish with a cheesy, crunchy top. I can see why it is one of the most favourited recipes on bite.co.nz. We have given the original recipe a slight tweak and we can recommend serving it with a salad of winter greens and some warm crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.

Also set to be a favourite is our latest reader recipe winner, Simon Portelli's Maltese lamb is slow-cooker perfection, and I would say the Raw Kitchen Moroccan bowl will rate highly also.
