Fried Chicken and Rice

Also known as "What to do with the leftovers from your roast dinner". This is one of my Mum's recipes, and a definite favourite in our house.

You will need:
1 onion
leftover veggies (peas, sweetcorn, carrots, whatever)
Leftover chicken (it works just as well with turkey or ham)
1 tin peeled plum tomatoes
tomato puree
dried mixed herbs
garlic puree (if you want)
Salt and pepper
Rice

Set the rice to boil. Fry the onion in a large frying pan and while that is softening, strip the meat off the chicken and add to the onion. Add in the garlic and tomato puree, the tinned tomatoes chopped up and leftover veg. Add some herbs and salt and pepper to taste and leave to simmer in the juices till the rice is all done. When the rice is cooked, put it in a large bowl and pour the chicken mix over, then mix it all in and serve.

This really is a very easy dish to make and is very tasty. A nice alternative to chicken sandwiches for leftovers.
