- Meanwhile, make the sauce. Heat the butter in a pan, add pepper and cook for 3 - 4 mins. Stir in the flour. Remove from heat.
- Gradually stir in the cream and seasoning. Return to heat and cook until thickened, stirring continuously. Do not boil.
- Serve chicken pieces on a bed of rice and serve sauce separately.
