Arrived today in windy Newcastle

[Sparky606]

Our Thermie has arrived!! Currently sitting in a box inside our house waiting for us to come home from work (thanks mam for waiting in for the delivery man!)
My husband and I are recently married and have used our wedding money to buy one. So excited to start using it.
Apparently we're one of the few people to own one in the North East of England so feeling a bit proud as punch.

My first test will be Saturday night when my sister is coming over for a meal. Cooked in honour of her 30th birthday.
She has requested chicken :-/
No idea where to start! I'm off to look at the recipe part of this forum now

Sorry for the long intro.

Welcome to the forum Tracy.Are the DW of Stewart who joined recently?
There are some very good recipes here on the forum for you to research.Honey Mustard Chicken is a favourite in our house and you can't go far to beat Baf's Varoma Chicken with variations
Just type in chicken in the search box on the home page and you will see many chicken recipes listed.

Thanks for the tips! I'll be sure to post about my first experience.

Sparky 606, welcome to the Forum.  Have fun with your new TMX.  If I can be bold to suggest that you make soup as a starter.  Made beforehand  and reheated on stove or in microwave.  This is very easy in the TMX and will get you familiar with the functions.    Also make a cold sweet beforehand ,  then you can concentrate on the Chicken dish.

Welcome Sparky606. Have a great time experimenting on the weekend. Hope Saturday goes to plan.

Hello Tracy, welcome to the forum.  You are in for a lot of fun in coming weeks, months and years so we hope you share some of your experiences with us all.  As a newbie, may I suggest that you read the recipe carefully - most mistakes are made because we get ahead of ourselves, throw in something that should be added just yet and although some recipes are forgiving, not all are.  Just take it easy, follow the recipe and you'll be right.  The honey mustard chicken is a lovely recipe as you will read with all the favourable comments on that thread.  Am I right in thinking you will be working it all out for yourself and not have a TMX consultant show you the ropes?

Hi Tracy - and a very warm welcome!  It may take a little getting used to, but once you get the hang of it you'll be flying!!   Do you have a consultant who can show you the ropes initially?  If not, any hitches, just put them on here and you'll have your answer in no time at all. . . .All very exciting for you both -  Congratulations and very best wishes to you both on your recent marriage - and forthe wisdom in choosing a very worthwhile investment!!

Looking forward to hearing more from you soon!!
