Ratatouile with Chicken

This is a quick one I've tried today. It goes against all I like about cooking, but it worked.

1 nicely sized Aubergine
1 red pepper
3 courgettes
1/2 jar of tomato sauce
500g chicken breast
Olive oil
Black pepper
coarse salt
table salt

Cut the vegetables in bite size pieces, as well as the chicken breasts, while heating up the oven to 180 oC. Pour half jar of tomato sauce (I've used Dolmio Lasagne sauce, but any other should do) on a medium baking tray and spread it over so it cover the whole thing. Add the vegetables and chicken chunks so they are all mixed up. Cover with foil and take it to the over for about one hour. After this time, check it for consistency. When it is good enough to eat, remove the foil and take it back to the oven for another 5-10 mins so the excess water is gone.

Ta-da ... enjoy.

  1. Oh ... I forgot.

    Cut the chicken first and season it with coarse sea salt and black pepper.

    before covering with foil, give it a good splash of olive oil and a bit of table salt over the vegetables.
