    Was a lush flavour and great recipe. Also used skin on thighs instead of legs. Only thing that was a shame, was after browning and crisping up the skin, it obvs goes soft when steamed in the oven.

    I couldn’t get the chicken legs - so I used 6 skin on thighs and was perfect! Loved this recipe and it went down a treat with my baby too (I left out the wine and used homemade stock). Firm favourite in our house now!

    I chose this recipe to use up odds and ends in the fridge. I used two leeks instead of the onion, a red wine stock pot instead of the white wine, and half a chicken stock cube. For two of us I used less lentils and reduced the liquid. It was absolutely stunning.
