Method

  1. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and fry the garlic and onion for 5 mins until softened.
  2. Add the chicken to the pan and cook for 5 mins until brown. Next, add the soup. Half fill the empty can with boiling water and add to the pan, together with the creamed mushrooms, sweetcorn and mixed herbs. Season with black pepper and simmer for about 20 mins, stirring regularly.
  3. Just before serving, stir in the wholegrain mustard if you fancy using it. This adds a more tangy taste. Serve with boiled rice and vegetables.
