Chicken bake
dinner
...
Ingredients
4-6 chicken thighs (bone in or not)
1 tin of crushed or chopped tomatoes
1 tbsp chicken stock powder or a crumbled stock cube
150 mls cream
1 punnet of sliced mushrooms (if you like them)
1 tin of white or cannelini beans
4 large sliced potatoes
1 large sliced onion (onion rings type slices)
salt and black pepper to taste
Method
Set the oven to 180ºc
- Cut the onion in half then slice into half onion rings. Set aside
- Slice the potatoes (I get out the mandolin to do the onions and spuds - its way quick)
- Put the sliced spuds in a plastic bag and tip in oil, salt and pepper and smush about so they are all covered
- In a medium sized baking dish or a dutch oven, tip oil in and wipe around so the dish is greased on the bottom
- Layer up the ingredients: Cover the bottom of the dish with a layer of sliced onion, then potatoes, then mushrooms if using
- Salt and pepper the chicken pieces, then layer over spuds and onions
- Tip over a drained tin of beans
- Add layer of the remaining onion then potatoes, keeping some for the top (and mushrooms)
- In a jug or something, mix the tin of tomatoes, cream, chicken stock and some salt and pepper and tip over the things
- Add another layer of potatoes making sure they have enough oil for them to crisp up when cooking
- Bake in a moderate oven for about 40 minutes until bubbly and the potatoes are crispy on the top. Don't put the lid on if you using a dutch oven
- Serve with salad or veggies. Double it all for a massive baking dish to feed more. So easy, one dish, proper yummy comfort food
