Chicken in Spaghetti Sauce

Submitted by Tansy1308

"I got this sauce receipe from my nephew chef Simon who also adds mushrooms when he makes this. With or without mushrooms, this is a lovely creamy sauce which can be adapted to your own tastes eg toasted pine nuts, avocado, broccoli."

This is a lovely dish that is definitely "company worthy". The chicken is moist and tender the creme fraiche gives it an elegant touch. I added broccoli for extra color. This is a winner, Tansy, thanks for sharing.

A nice pasta dish. Next time I'll also add some crushed red pepper flakes to kick it up a bit. Thanks for sharing.
