The ducks nuts. Had with penne and crusty sourdough. Thank you ?
Sorry to ask, is T a tablespoon?
Hi Jordan, Yes T is tablespoon, t is teaspoon
I used red wine instead of white and black olives instead of green .it was yummy
Made this last night. I only had red wine, but I don’t think it made much difference. It was so delicious. Another one to add to my favourites list.
It was delicious. I used black olives instead of green because that’s all I had. Even my son, who doesn’t like olives or mushrooms, came back for seconds. Thanks for a great recipe.
Could you use chicken stock instead of wine?
You could just leave it out if you prefer Kate, no need to replace it with extra stock 🙂
Hi Pauline
Love your recipes as usual and have all your books!
Now hubby loves chicken legs and kids only the breasts can I put them in together?
For how long?
Thank you
Louisa
Drumsticks would take around 4-5hrs total but the breast only 3hrs total so add the breast in a little later is what I’d do 🙂
