Honey & Wholegrain Mustard Chicken Casserole


Recipe serves 2.

2 chicken legs
Seasoned flour
1 garlic clove, crushed1
red onion, sliced
100g button mushrooms
250ml medium cider
250ml chicken stock
1 tbsp clear honey
1 tbsp Maille wholegrain mustard

Method:
Heat oven to 190 C/375 F/Gas Mark 5
Dust chicken with flour and fry until browned.

Fry garlic, onion and mushrooms for five minutes, then transfer to a suitable dish.

Add cider, stock, honey and mustard.

Cover and cook for 1 hour.

Thicken if required and cook for another 15 minutes.

Serve with seasonal vegetables.

I alterered the recipe slightly. I used white wine instead of cider, normal onion instead of red, and I only used about 300ml of liquid all together. I also used about 2-3 tbsp of mustard and 2 tbsp of honey. Plus I cooked mine on top of the stove rather than in the oven. Takes half the time if you cook on top of the stove!!! Credit crunch - gotta save the pennies.
