I am making Mary Berry's Tuscan Chicken for lunch for 8 of us tomorrow. It is made with chicken thighs, paprika, garlic, sundried tomatoes, peppers, onions, spinach, stock, white wine and cream.

I have previously served it with pasta or baked potatoes. Dh always asks for roast potatoes - with everything!!

So suggestions please for any accompaniments. Preferable not pasta.

My DH likes new potatoes lightly oiled and oven roasted.....keeps everyone happy.

New potatoes - either just buttered or roughly crushed with parsley if you want to soak up juices.
I like whole green beans too or tenderstem broccoli

I would suggest this too as the dish sounds quite rich, with white wine and cream.

I will, deedaa. I have one in a big pot outside the back door. I also have sage, parley and bay as my most used herbs at least over the winter.

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?

I asked DH if he could pick me some sage, rosemary and thyme from my herb garden the other day.

The chives are growing well too.

I love romanesco broccoli/cauliflower
I haven't seen any or a while. Yes, I agree, they are good.

I'm very self indulgent and buy the twin pack of baby ones from Sainsbury's.

I am making that meal mid week serving it with orzo (al dente) and lightly steamed green beans.
