Batchelor Cuisine: Chicken with Mushrooms

This one is so totally slack it scares me :)

You’ll need:

  • a tablespoon of olive oil,
  • a kilogram of chicken legs (AKA drumsticks),
  • a 400-or-so gram tin of champignons,
  • a 400-or-so gram tin of mushrooms in butter sauce,
  • a 400-or-so gram tin of tomatoes (diced, whole, doesn’t really matter),
  • 3-4 shallots cut roughly, and
  • salt/pepper/stock cubes to season 

Heat the oil over medium heat in a large saucepan with a lid. Put the chicken in. When browned, empty the tins into the saucepan. Chop the shallots and add. Season. Throw lid on. Leave for an hour. Throw some pasta in with the chicken (or cook it separately if you can be bothered doing at least part of it properly) :). Serve.

Serves 4 normal people, two hogs, or one batchelor for a couple of days including lunches.
