Ingredients
Method
- First preheat the oven to gas marked 175C degrees (350 F degrees)
- Cook ground beef and sausage in a large pot over medium heat; drain. Stir in tomato sauce, mushrooms, garlic salt, oregano, thyme, and basil; season with salt and black pepper. Simmer 30 minutes.
- Add salt, water and olive oil to a large pot and boil. Then cook the lasagne sheets in the boiling water until soft – about 7 – 9 minutes, drain and set aside.
- Add together ricotta cheese (or its alternative), eggs, and Parmesan cheese in a bowl.
- Put a thin layer of meat sauce at the bottom of a baking tray or dish, followed with 3 layer lasagne sheets over top. Spread a 1/3 ricotta cheese mixture over sheets; sprinkle a 1/4 mozzarella cheese on top. Scoup 1/3 meat sauce over mozzarella cheese, repeat layering 2 times more and finish with remaining mozzarella cheese.
- Put in the preheated oven and bake until cheese melts and sauce bubbles for one and half hours. To prevent from burning, cover lasagne with foil.
- Let sit before serving for 10 to 15 minutes.

Irresistible Weeknight Chicken Magic with Fluffy Rice
A flavour-packed, family-friendly chicken and rice dinner made with simple ingredients, minimal prep, and loads of cosy weeknight comfort. This skillet-style dish delivers tender chicken, a creamy savoury sauce, and perfectly cooked rice—all in under an hour.
Ingredients
Method
- Prepare the Rice: Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Add rice, water (or broth), salt, and butter to a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, cover with a tight lid, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit—covered—for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
- Season the Chicken: Pat chicken dry and season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and Italian herbs.
- Sear the Chicken: Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear 4–5 minutes per side until golden. Remove to a plate (it will finish cooking later).
- Build the Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add diced onion. Sauté 3 minutes until softened.
- Stir in garlic, tomato paste, and Dijon mustard; cook 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in chicken broth and bring to a gentle simmer, scraping up any browned bits.
- Add the Creaminess: Stir in the double cream and Parmesan until smooth and slightly thickened.
- Finish the Chicken: Return the chicken to the pan, nestling it into the sauce. Cover and simmer 10–12 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temp 75°C / 165°F).
- Serve: Spoon the creamy “magic” chicken and sauce over the fluffy rice. Sprinkle with parsley if desired.
Notes
Optional Tips / Variations
- Make it one-pan: Add 1 cup of uncooked rice + 2 cups broth directly to the skillet with the sauce and cook covered for 18–20 minutes.
- Add veg: Spinach, mushrooms, or cherry tomatoes can be stirred in during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
- Swap protein: Use turkey cutlets, prawns, or boneless pork chops.
- Extra flavour: Add a pinch of chilli flakes or 1 teaspoon lemon juice for brightness.
- Lighten it up: Use half cream + half milk and reduce Parmesan slightly.
