If you want to be really lazy you can just cook rounds of pastry. Make your chicken in a sort of casserole then serve it up and plonk a cooked 'lid' on top. That's what lots of pubs do these days.

Personally I'd just put 'casserole' chicken in an ovenproof dish/tin and put the pastry lid on. Then you're only cooking the pastry and heating the filling. I wouldn't want to risk the filling not being cooked properly.

spike, did you mean those bags of lots of chicken bits from Sainsbury's? I've just finished mine tonight. I think they're brilliant. The leg portions were big enough for a mini midweek roast for two of us. Unfortunately don't seem to be on website.

Thanks all....I'm putting a base on it as when it's cooked,I'll cut it into 3 portsions,scoff one & freeze the other three.

Maman,that's them...a bag will last me over a month.Great value & even Daisy cat gets a drummer to nibble on...
