  • I`d second the coronation chicken idea. Also, a nice buttery HM sauce with mushrooms, let it cool then mix the chicken in -with either of these you should get away with quite big bits of chicken.

    marinate it in either an oily marinade or a creamy one and heat up 'briefly' only until its hot!
    and oily marinade could be the simplest oil + soy sauce +ginger and garlic and a creamy one - yoghurt + curry powder.
    the marinaded chicken could be left for at least half hour to overnight in the fridge and I would stir fry if possible or put in the oven at high heat.
