I like trying out new dishes that use a lot of ingredients and can get done in under 30 minutes. This morning I came up with this rather delicious chicken bake, I used a few pieces of chicken as the dish was small -- to serve one adult and a kid -- so I didn't need to add a whole lot of meat in, but like all my recipes the quantities are hugely adjustable.
The Recipe:
1 large tomato chopped
2-3 garlic cloves smashed + another 2-3 cloves whole
handful baby portobello mushrooms sliced fine
2 potatoes boiled and mashed
1/2 cup steamed spinach
1/2 cup grated good quality cheddar
organic chicken drumettes and wings
pinch tumeric
1 tablespoon good quality tomato paste
Boil the chicken in water with a pinch of tumeric; salt and two to three cloves of garlic for about 15 minutes. Add some olive oil to a heavy bottomed pan, saute the smashed garlic for a few minutes, add the tomatoes, spinach, mushroom, tomato paste and saute till nice and mushy. Add seasoning and cheese and keep mixing till the tomatoes have broken down well. Add boiled chicken to this mixture and finally the mashed potato. Take off from heat and spoon mixture into a baking dish. Cover with foil and bake about 25-30 mins at 150.
Serve warm with steamed white rice or flake the chicken, mix into baked tomato mixture and use this as a pasta sauce. Delicious either way.
