This was food heaven for me. Chicken and cheese! I used chicken breasts with the skin on, cut those in irregular pieces. Because I used the breast I cut down the cooking time in half. Lovely smell whilst it is cooking in the oven and we loved the thin crispy coating on the chicken. Served this with penne in a light tomato sauce and vegetables.
