I love this one, and have changed and adapted it over the years, its good enough for a dinner party, but really, just a leftover dish!
Chopped cooked leftover chicken, 1 cup cream, 1 cup milk, 1 sachet Maggi Mushroom Soup, chopped cooked bacon, chopped mushrooms (use as much of everything as you like, and increase the cream and milk/soup mix accordingling) Mix the cream, milk and soup mix and thicken either in a jug in the microwave or a pot on the stove. Place the chicken, mushroom and bacon in a lidded casserole dish, pour over the chicken soup/cream/milk mixture. Bake at 180C for 45 minutes. Serve over rice or fettuchini with green beens. My family love this.You can also freeze it, or use it for pie filling.

Hey Stormbaby... hope things are ok's with you and yours... Its hard to comprehend the devastation, turmoil and fear and continuing apprehension that this second earthquake has brought into Cantabs lives.. Have made a donation but that all seems so little when you are far away from it all..

This is a fav in our house. I use the drumsticks which makes it economical when they are down to 4.99 kg.
4 rashers bacon (* i ran out last time and just added 3/4 tsp paprika, & 1/4 tsp smoked paprika hubby loved it) 2 tbsp oil 50 g butter 300g small mushrooms halved 1.5kg chicken peices 2 onions chopped 2 cloves garlic crushed 1 400g tin chopped tomatoes in juice 1 cup chicken stock 1 cup cream ( I use sour cream and probably only use about a 1/4 cup it is what I usually have in fridge) 2 tbsp fresh parsley fresh thyme leaves. chop bacon and cook in large frying pan remove & set aside on paper towels. heat half the oil & butter cook mushrooms until softened & golden remove. Add remaining oil & brown the chicken pieces over high heat until skin is browned and a little crisp. Add remaining butter and add the onion & garlic cook over med heat until softened pour in tomatoes, stock, cream,and return the bacon, mushrooms, & chicken . simmer over med heat for about 25 min or until sauce has thickened season with salt and pepper, and a little sugar* to taste. (Just something I do) Add fresh herbs and simmer for another 5 min.

Easiest one I know is one me Mum used to make..You want Chicken thighs..boned etc but not really needed. So..all you do is chop an onion..throw in caserole dish..Cut the thighs in half..put in your dish. Mix up one packet of Maggi cream of chook soup with maybe a cup of water,,maybe a bit more..tip into Caserole dish..Salt and pepper it..Put oven on about 170..cook an hour..thicken with a little Cornflower if the liquids a bit runny..serve with rice..Simple and very tasty.

Hehehe, the kids call it my "siege mentality", I call it my Dutch ability to make leftovers into more meals than the original meal. I bet a lot of us can do that. That's guys, cheers me up that something good came out of Chch this week. Waves to jessie981! At least I know you have power.
