Chicken Potato Layer

Chicken Potato Layer – made from leftover cooked chicken with mushrooms, bacon and onions.

This is nice eaten with green vegetables for a winter meal or with a leafy salad for a summer meal.

Ingredients

• leftover cooked chicken
• onion
• mushrooms
• bacon
• garlic
• potatoes
• mixed herbs and black pepper
• cheese sauce

Preparation method

Line a greased ovenproof dish with thinly sliced potato.

Lightly fry some chopped onion, mushrooms and bacon (cut into little squares). You can use low fat bacon to make it even healthier. Add some finely chopped garlic at this stage if liked. Mix together with the cooked left over chicken, add a pinch of mixed herbs and a dash of black pepper if liked.

Spoon the mixture over the potato slices and top with another layer of potato slices and a cheese sauce made from semi skimmed milk and low fat cheese.

Pop in oven (180 C/Gas 4) for about an hour and a half or until potato is cooked. Just before serving add a sprinkle of low fat cheese on the top and pop into the oven to melt. If liked, you could add sliced tomatoes on the top too for more vitamin value and colour.
