Some people may consider it an insult to an Italian classic. However, Chicken Bolognese is a simple variation that is full of flavour and offer a lovely change. the lovely delicate chicken is diced and so has a chunkier bite to it. Apart from that, its the same. This main dish is ready within 35 minutes anytime of the week and ideal for families
