Get some chicken breasts, then simmer them in taco seasoning. Shred or chop them, then put in soft tortillas (or hard taco shells) with cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, black olives, sour cream and taco sauce.

Roast chicken legs with stir fried rice. ( skip the Asian flavours and use regular US flavours, or Mexican, Italian etc.

I would have potatoes, and I am certain I could find you away to cook them which you would enjoy. There is more to them than mashed, probably coming from the packet or as fries.

You could consider Kumaras (sweet potatoes)



Order take away.



You could make this chicken and rice casserole. It's fairly simple and something that everyone likes~
1 10 oz. package of saffron yellow Spanish rice (Vigo)
1 10 oz. can of canned premium chicken in water
1 can cream of chicken or cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup milk
paprika
*optional: onions
**optional: fried fried onions
**optional: cheese

Cook rice as directed but simmer for 15 minutes. (When combined with the other ingredients and cooked in the oven, the rice will cook more.)
Drain water from canned chicken. Combine soup and chicken in bowl.

Add cooked rice to soup and chicken. Stir in 1/2 cup of milk, more or less, depending on consistency desired.

Cook uncovered in a casserole dish at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes. No need to grease the dish.


If that doesn't sound good or you don't have the ingredients for it, you could try this cheese enchilada recipe. It's really good(: ~
Ingredients:


?1 lb of mild cheddar cheese, grated
?corn tortillas
?vegetable oil
?1/4-1/3 cup finely chopped yellow onion
?Enchilada sauce, heated
?sour cream, optional
?guacamole, optional


Directions:

Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan on medium heat.


You will need some tongs and a plate or tray to assemble your enchiladas.


Using tongs, dip two corn tortillas at a time into the hot oil. When the tortillas start to bubble, lift and dip them into the oil 3 times fairly quickly.

The goal here is to make the tortillas soft. If the tortillas are left in the oil too long they will get hard and be difficult to roll. If that happens just toss them out and start over.

The other option is to go ahead and keep cooking them in the oil until they become hard. These can be used as tostada shells if you like.

Okay, back to dipping the tortillas 3 quick times in the oil. Once you do this, dip the tortillas into hot enchilada sauce to coat. Now put the tortillas on a plate to cool one minute.

Add a handfull of the grated cheese and sprinkle some onion down the center of one tortilla and roll it. Do this by grabbing one end of the tortilla and bringing it 3/4 of the way over to the other end. Tuck and roll the tortilla.

Pick up the cheese enchilada with your fore fingers on the botton where the seam is. Let your pinky fingers cover the ends of the enchilada to keep the cheese from falling out while you move it to an oven proof dish.

With a little practice you will be a pro in no time at this.

Using a ladle, pour hot enchilada sauce over the top of the cheese enchiladas and let plenty of sauce run down the sides. Remember, the sauce is what makes it!

Sprinkle more cheese and onion on top in the desired amount. Now didn't I tell you this cheese enchilada recipe was easy?

Cooking -
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and place your enchiladas in the oven. Heat the cheese enchiladas until they look somewhat flat and the sauce is bubbling. This will probably take 15 minutes or more.

If neither of these sound good, you could just make something really simple like grilled cheese, frozen pizza or Campbell's soup.
