My kids love this recipie as not only can they join in with making it they also get the fun of eating it too!
Although I really enjoyed watching Anthony cook this for his children, when I cooked this recipe and was very dissapointed there was no taste to the chicken . I followed the recipe and thought it contained far too much corn oil and not enough flavour Anthony - sorry.
