You could it just won’t be the same taste of course 🙂 Add 2tsp cornflour to the coconut cream before adding to minimise risk of it splitting 🙂

So easy.
Used 500g chicken and about 300ml cooking cream and 100ml normal cream. Added sliced mushroom and red capsicum. Cooked on low for 8 hours in my 5.5litre SC. Served with roasted carrot, zucchini and garlic brocollini and a little rice to mop up the sauce.

I have been making something similar to this for years. I add a around 1/2 milk extra, a tablespoon of toasted pine nuts and a 1/4 of sliced kalamata olives. We have it on pasta topped with Parmesan cheese . A huge favorite with my family.

You’ve done it again Paulene! Yum! We had with cauli mash and steamed greens. Next time I might add some diced bacon. A new family regular I think. Thank you!

Very flavoursome.
I had just over half the amount of chicken so adjusted the cream and pesto to just over half the amount suggested.
Cooked on the Baby s.c
Was cooked in 2.5 hrs but left for 3 hrs and the chicken was cooked perfectly soft and tender .
Severe on the lcauli broc and sweet potoate rice from wollies.
It’s a great belly warming meal on a freezing winters night.

I keep going back to this, I love it and make enough portions to have several available should I want it. I would also suggest adding some mustard to the cream, with the pesto. It doesn’t ideally help to thicken it, but it does add a little more flavour and the odd kick, depending upon the mustard used. I’ve also added any variations of veg too, but never too many – simples is best.
