An easy Chicken Casserole for the lazy ones!

Some weekdays are thus; you are too lazy to cook elaborately and want to chuck everything into a dish and say voilĂ .  And that is exactly what I did and with much trepidation I presented the outcome to the hungry family. In no time they gulped everything up while I watched with much satisfaction. 

Now let me try to replicate the recipe here.

Chicken Casserole 



Ingredients

1- Chicken breasts sliced into medium pieces - 500 gm
2- Onions, finely chopped - 2 nos.

3- Carrot cut into cubes - 1
4- Potatoes cut into slices (it cooks better) - 3 nos.
5- Bell pepper (any color) seeded and sliced - 1 no
6- Garlic cloves, crushed - 5 nos.
7- Tomato paste - 2 Tbspn

8- Sour Cream - 2 Tbspn
9 - Knorr Chicken Soup Powder - 2 Tbspn
10-  Olive oil - 3 Tbspn
11 - Oregano/Thyme/Pepper flakes/Pepper Powder/Basil (Whatever is in your kitchen) - 1 Tspn each
12- Tomato chopped - 2 nos.
13 - Hot water - 1 cup

Method


Preheat oven to 180 C. Marinate the vegetables along with Olive Oil and ingredients 6,7 and 11. Use your hands to mix/coat the vegetables with the marinade. Now add the chicken and the rest of the ingredients.  (Ingredients 8&9 are optional but it does enhance the taste). 


Leave it aside for 10-15 minutes. Microwave this for 15 minutes and later bake it in your conventional oven for another 20 minutes or so after giving a gentle mix. Or you can use the conventional oven for 45 minutes while giving it a gentle mix after 20 minutes. Check if the chicken is well cooked. Serve and enjoy!
