Keep cosy in the biting winter weather with a quick and easy, hearty casserole.

National treasure Mary Berry has shared an ideal recipe that’s perfect for feeding the family without spending hours in the kitchen. The celebrity chef describes her ‘simple but tasty’ chicken casserole as a dish you’ll ‘come back to again and again’, and it’s not hard to see why.

If you choose chicken breast over thigh, you can shave 20 minutes off the cooking time. And yes, there is alcohol in this recipe, but rest assured – the alcohol will evaporate during cooking.

Ingredients (Serves 4-6)

Method

A classic winter warmer that you can rustle up in less than an hour. This dish pairs wonderfully with a generous helping of mashed potato and some green vegetables.

You can even prepare the casserole up to two days in advance and simply reheat it when you’re ready to serve.
