Good afternoon,

I would make a cream sauce with taragon, cream and chicken stock.

Roast the tomatoes and shallots with a little garlic till soft but not mushy (remove the garlic and save for later) add the tomatoes and shallots to cream sauce.

Add chicken to cream sauce and warm gently.

Cook pasta, and toss in butter and roasted garlic, pile the chicken sauce ontop of the pasta.

Godere.

We're in the same boat tonight. Bought a fresh chicken yesterday, roasted it, had it with roasted roots, peas, gravy and homemade apple sauce last night.

Tonight I've just made coronation chicken with what's left, both of us having had a chicken sandwich for lunch. We'll be having the coronation chicken (mayo, dollop of mango chutney, couple of spoons of curry paste, small handful of sultanas) with jacket potatoes.

Leftover roast chicken is so versatile and tasty. Sometimes we just have it with chips and sweetcorn or homemade coleslaw.

thanks both of you - I made the Coronation last week, Vagus - a little adaption with sultanas added in.

Tonight probably more along the lines of DD in a cream sauce sautéing off the shallots and garlic and then the mush and toms. A splash of white wine and then a ladle of stock and reduce. Cream in and then the chicken - pe-warmed with paprika, cayenne, black pepper, oregano and mustard seeds and then added to the chicken - last the tagliatelle....

A glass or two of vino rouge to celebrate an England win - and looking good at the moment.

I always add sultanas, love the sweet/salty taste.

Im sure whatever you make will be delicious, fresh pasta would make it even better, I always have some in the freezer, soooo different to the dried stuff.

it is fresh pasta though my sister recently bought some pretty good dried lemon pasta and a tomato one from Provence for me under the brand 'La Pasta di Aldo'..
