Budget chicken dinners under £2
Chicken dinners that come under £2 per person.
by Justine Pattison
A simple and easy risotto-style supper, that uses cheaper long grain rice instead of short grain arborio rice. Add the stock all in one go at the beginning for a hands-off simple risotto. Use leftover chicken from a roast and any frozen or cooked vegetables you like.
This recipe is part of a Budget meal plan for four. In September 2023 this recipe was costed at an average of £3.02 when checking prices at four UK supermarkets (priced using pre-cooked chicken – it will be cheaper if the chicken is batch cooked as part of the meail plan). This recipe is designed to be made in conjunction with a low-cost store-cupboard.
