This was a quick improvised dinner, the fridge was bare and I didn’t feel like going to the shops. I had some chicken breast in the freezer which I defrosted and could roast chicken breast in the oven. Potatoes in the pantry (which I always keep in good supply) however, had very little fresh vegetables, so I resorted to using up the last of the cauliflower and carrot and found some peas and corn in the freezer. Then I fancied it up with a simple gravy using the juices from the chicken, some chicken stock (which I usually keep in stock in the pantry).
