Boneless, skinless chicken breast is one of those groceries we buy with the very best intentions. Then 5 pm rolls around and it’s sitting in the fridge looking about as inspiring as the unopened bag of spinach next to it. This collection is for exactly that moment. I’ve taken one packet of chicken breast in 10 completely different directions – from cheesy One-pan Chicken and Broccoli Lasagne and Creamy Garlic Chicken to sticky Crispy Sweet Chilli Chicken, Quick Chicken Chow Mein and Chicken Schnitzel with Creamy Mushroom Sauce. They’re straightforward, family-friendly and full of flavour, with enough variety to keep different tastes happy and make this hard-working grocery staple feel far less repetitive. Ten solid answers to “what’s for dinner?” before somebody helpfully suggests takeaway!
