    1 Heat oil in a non-stick casserole dish or large pan and cook onion until softened. Add chicken and cook over a high heat until it has lost its pink colour.

    3 Mixed mashed potato and cheese together and cover top of casserole. Place in an oven preheated to 190°C. Bake for 30 minutes. Garnish with parsley and serve.

    Variations

    The base of this recipe is Simple chicken casserole which, with only a few simple tweaks, can also be transformed into these delicious meals:

    Chicken pizza on polenta base
    Spicy chicken with chickpeas

    HFG tip

    Make as one large pie or top smaller pie dishes and serve for staggered mealtimes. You can make these pies with half the base recipe, too: simply reduce the amount of corn added and potato and cheese used.
