CHICKEN AND VEGETABLE CRUMBLE This is an easy, can be prepared ahead, almost all-in-one meal and a good way of using up leftover cooked chicken.
2 cups (360g) chopped cooked chicken 500g frozen mixed vegetables 1 x 440g can condensed cream of asparagus soup (or other soup of choice)2/3 cup stale breadcrumbs ½ cup grated tasty cheese 3 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Thaw the frozen vegetables and drain them to remove as much excess liquid as possible. Combine the chicken, vegetables and soup in an 8 cup capacity ovenproof dish. Mix the breadcrumbs, cheese and parsley in a bowl, then sprinkle the mixture over the chicken and vegetables. Bake at 180ºC for about 40 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned and the crumble is heated through. Note:Because I was usually only needing to feed 3 people I served the Crumble as is without any extra veg. etc, but to provide more servings, serve it with additional vegetables, salad, potatoes or fresh bread.
There is plenty of scope for variation on the above basic recipe - add e.g. sauteed onions or leeks, sauteed mushrooms, bacon..... and, of course, vary the soup flavour according to personal preference and what is available.
Hope that helps.:-))
