Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    This didn't come out as well as we'd hoped. The plums were delicious and the flavours nicely aromatic but the sauce wasn't as dark and sticky as it looked in the picture and we felt the chicken got rather lost, especially as the skin didn't brown/crisp at all. I'm going to try this again - maybe I need an even shallower dish to cook it in.

    Outstanding! Another fantastic recipe from this book. All the flavours work beautifully with the chicken and create delicious juices. Luckily my plums were tart, they were perfect against the rich chicken. I served it with bulgar pilaf as suggested. Will absolutely repeat.

    I forgot to add the second half of the plums, cover the chicken in foil or add the pomegranate seeds. But the dish still turned out to be delicious. I served it with bulger wheat as suggested in the notes. Really love this and will definitely repeat.

    This was really delicious. Recipe says to add 1/2 the plums to the roasting tin and then the other 1/2 later. I can't see why, there seemed to be no difference in the texture or taste. If I cook it again I will add them all at the beginning. Diana recommends covering in foil towards the end of cooking if honey starts to burn, this is a good idea. I didn't but wish I had!
