  3. Remove the chicken and thinly slice. Place on a large, hot serving dish and keep warm until required.

  5. Add the crème fraîche, the horseradish and the honey. Heat gently and add the chopped parsley and salt and pepper to taste. Stir until well blended.
  6. Pour a little of the whisky sauce around the chicken and pour the remaining sauce into a sauceboat to serve.
  7. Serve with a vegetable patty made from the leftover vegetables, mashed potato and fresh vegetables. Garnish with the parsley sprig.
