Ready Steady Cook wannabies ...

[likessleep]

... I am lacking inspiration for dinner.
I have 1 chicken breast, copious amounts of potatoes, a courgette, a few carrots and parsnips + cupboard staples. For 2 adults.
Any suggestions purlease .... many thanks (and also thanks from my husband, who currently is gonna get half a grilled chicken breast and veg!)

You could make it into a kind of chicken and vegetable curry.

That's a good idea Cies, thank you. I tried making curry before with curry powder, veg and lentils and it tasted awful. Any ideas what I could put in it to make it taste better?
DH would like curry ...
Just nipping out to get some fresh air, but will be back on in bit.

I'd fry some onions, add the chicken chopped up in pieces, brown it well, then add the veg chopped up and let it coat with the oil. Stir in some combination of curry powder, chilli (paste or flakes or chopped fresh), maybe cumin, garam masala. Then a bit of tomato puree if you have it, and a tin of tomatoes. Let it simmer for about 20 mins.

It'd probably taste ok, not mind-blowingly delicious, but perfectly edible and tasty!

thanks cies, i'll try that. i know we have fresh chilli in and cumin.
cheers!
