Instructions to make Chicken / Veggie Stew:
  1. Heat oil and butter in a large deep frying pan. If making both chicken and veggie version, get two pans on the go and add equal butter and oil to each. You can use small saucepans if you don't have deep frying pans. Add onion, celery and garlic and fry for 3-4 minutes until softened.
  2. Now add the chicken / Quorn and season well. Toss on a high heat until browned. If you are using mushrooms instead of Quorn, skip this step.
  3. Now add the mushrooms and continue frying - the onions should be starting to caramelise. Turn the heat down and add the white wine, scraping the pan as you go.
  4. Sprinkle in the flour and stir rapidly, then add the tomato paste and the stock, stirring well to combine. Add the bay leaves, thyme and Worcester sauce and stir in.
  5. Now add the carrots and potatoes. For the chicken stew, lift the chicken to the top so the skin is above the liquid. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover and leave on stove for 45 minutes.
  6. Heat oven to 180C/350F. Put the stew in the hot over with the lid off and cook for a further 40 minutes until the stock has thickened and the chicken skin goes crispy. For the veggie version you can complete this thickening in the oven or on the stove with the lid off until it's your desired thickness.
  7. Season if necessary. Serve with crusty bread to mop up the sauce.
  8. Tip. This meal can be reheated on the stove top and will store in the fridge for 3 days after cooking. Only reheat the amount you're going to eat so you don't overlook the veggies.

Add onion, celery, carrots and garlic. Move them around the pan before adding the wine. Turn down the heat, add the tomatoes, tomato puree, salt and pepper. This hearty one-pot chicken stew practically cooks itself! It's made all in one-pot with tender chunks of chicken and savory veggies.
