I've been in a salty mood all day today. Every youtube video I chose to watch tonight was ticking me off more. I saw your latest video and thought, he always makes me happy, I'll watch this one. Now I feel more relaxed and can go to bed in a better mood. Your style of just being a regular guy with the same problems we all have comforts me. It's like I've popped over to a friend's kitchen to have a chat while you're making dinner. Thanks for the little boost. Bless your sweet little brit heart. (Cerise from Georgia).
If you can afford powdered milk it stays good on the shelf for hard times. I keep some because we don't have the room for gallons of milk and I use it for anything that needs a bit like pasta or coffee. It does have a bit of a different taste then milk but if you try it before you cook it'll help you figure out how to apply it to what you're making with it
My grandma used to do chicken in white sauce when we were kids, she would add some tinned sweetcorn and then roll it up in some pancakes like little chicken burritos 😂 My dad also used to do it with boil in the bag rice on our camping trips, no mess and no fridge needed 😁
Great recipe. We have a campervan and I always take dried pasta, rice and a few tins for an emergency but I never know what to do with them to make a decent tasty meal. After finding your channel I’m getting loads of ideas. Thanks for sharing.
Reminds me of the 70s/80s when many recipes used a can of chicken or mushroom soup as the base. But that was when chicken soup out of a can wasn't the disgusting gloop you so often find today. A tip with broccoli is to get it out of its unnecessary wrapper if it has one as soon as you get home, cut the dry bottom of the stalk off, and put it into a glass of water. It is amazing just how quickly the florets firm up. As for broccoli, cauliflower, and even cabbage stalks, I keep hearing of loads of uses for them - but not for me, eaten raw, they are the chef's perks every time!
I’ve never seen chicken like that I know we have small tins of chicken like a tin of tuna in Australia but not in any sauce, well none that I’ve seen anyway. It actually looked quite nice for something that came out if a can.
When I was younger living on my own I used this chicken in white sauce! I would fry an onion and couple of chopped mushrooms, added frozen peas and corn, and parsley and tarragon, add in the tin of chicken in white sauce and a tiny bit of milk to loosen. Ate it with rice or instant mash
Hi Adam, I’ve actually got a tin of Aldi’s chicken on the cupboard, been there for ages. Now I know what to do with it…another easy recipe that my lot will love eating..just need some garlic bread too….thanks Adam 👍
Nice simple recipe. My wife came up with a good use for left over lemon, we slice it up then freeze it laid out flat (assuming you have a freezer), then store in the freezer in a plastic container. These frozen slices deal for popping into a G&T or other tasty beverages.
It's nearly quarter to two in the morning and I'm still binge watching all your videos. Hubby woke up and saw me on the computer and said " I bet you're watching Adam again!" LOL
That is another good dinner idea. It has got me thinking..................And as for the broccoli stalks, I use to throw them out, so your educational info was very good
@@Adam_Garratt walk a mile a day for a week, then two miles a day for the second week, then the third week do three miles three times a week. You will never need a gym. 🙂
Never thought tinned chicken could look so good! Thankyou for the recipe. Would you consider doing more fish recipes in the future? Would love to see a pan fried salmon or grilled prawn dish ☺️
That's looks great Adam! I've never tried the chicken in a can. Great idea for the pantry though! Not sure I've seen it in sauce here in NZ ! I'm the same about onions. Some times I haven't even decided what I'm cooking for dinner but I'm already chopping up the onion ! Lol
Adam, You have the magic touch! When I moved out at 18 ,I would have corn flakes for tea one day and rice crispies the next! And for a treat mid week I'd have tinned spag bol!! I look back and wonder how I survived! Oh,and tinned rice pudding too,eaten straight from the tin!! I'm off today and am catching up on your videos, watching some old ones too.Youre such a case Love you to bitsAd! Xxxx
Oh man I can relate to that Ruth. Some of the crap I ate when I was 18 would barely pass as food 🤣. Tinned burgers cold right of the tin. I remember I was so skint, all I had was a can of tomatoes and some cheese that was slightly mouldy. So I cut the mould off, cut it up and chucked it in with the tomatoes and ate it like a cold soup. Bedsit gazpacho 🤣
That looks so good; I love seeing the creativity using store cupboard staples to make cheap easy meals! Would love a series on that. Also, hope the fridge is up and running smoothly and serves you well for many years to come
At 47 after cooking for a large family I am moving and will have a mini fridge and standard microwave. So ideas like these are awesome! Adam biggest fan
I use this for my kids once or twice a month its great i either use spaghetti and add bacon so like a creamy fake carbonara haha or i use pasta shapes n bake it with cheese on top i also sometimes add some chicken seasoning and garlic its just a good cheap base for a great dish
My daughter loves chicken in sauce and I go, but it's so beige and bland. Now I can show her how to turn it into something palatable. You're a culinary saviour. Mogs looked so contented in your washing basket. Bless.
He was not impressed when I had to take the washing out lol. He had a bed but never used it. I think it's because it had my scent on it and it comforts him
Looks extra scrummy, (as per usual), mate! 👍🏻😋 It's 11:15pm here in Sydney, what with Daylight Saving Summer Time, and the weather has been quite the opposite of the UK too, stiflingly hot and humid! 🥵 So glad I caught this before toddling off to beddie byes! 😄
That was an awesome recipe for a tin of cheap chicken gloop and a bit of broccoli..just the sort of nondescript items that are lurking in most cupboards, what a great way to use them up...hope the fridge has arrived xx
Great little recipe Adam, I love a good pasta! Did you get new pans? They look really nice! I'm a bit confused though. Who was moving your camera while filming? Mogs? 🤯
A daft think to ask maybe, but - what if you don't have all those cupboard extras that everyone seems to take for granted? Salt. pepper, various herbs and spices, flour, oil. That's going to be an upfront cost to begin with. Not everyone has these staples believe it or not, and don't have the money to buy them all at once up front - so really, (particularly if you're trying to convince people to cook for themselves) the question should be which of those staple cupboard items are prioritised over others?
Looks delicious as always Adam. This is what I love to do with premade stuff from the store like that. Frozen pizza isn't very good, sure. Throw more toppping from your fridge on it, extra cheese, and whatever herbs and spices you like. Bam! Much better. Same with canned soup and other stuff. Yeah, sure it won't be as good as 100% homemade, but that isn't always possible and improving premade stuff can still have great results
We can get canned chicken in the US, but I don't recall ever seeing chicken in white sauce, and I'm one of those dorky people who studies the shelves all the time. In fact, I don't think I've even seen it at any UK specialty store in my area. I can get mushy peas though!🤣
Does that qualify as cheap eats ? I think it looks Abfab even without the fridge. Send me a pic of the new one on messenger Hahaha show me your I’ll show you mine 😄
Laughing my arse off at Adam's face after the lemon water 🤣🤣🤣

I guess if you grated them raw, they would add a nice flavour to salads or make a slaw with them
I’ve never seen chicken like that I know we have small tins of chicken like a tin of tuna in Australia but not in any sauce, well none that I’ve seen anyway. It actually looked quite nice for something that came out if a can.
Hi Adam, it’s also quite palatable with curry spices too.

Hi Adam, I’ve actually got a tin of Aldi’s chicken on the cupboard, been there for ages. Now I know what to do with it…another easy recipe that my lot will love eating..just need some garlic bread too….thanks Adam 👍
You can use different veggies too. You could add spinach but I've gone off the stuff, too slimy
Nice simple recipe. My wife came up with a good use for left over lemon, we slice it up then freeze it laid out flat (assuming you have a freezer), then store in the freezer in a plastic container. These frozen slices deal for popping into a G&T or other tasty beverages.

I don't want to give you insomnia Jennifer 😂
@@Adam_Garratt Too late, Adam....tooooooooo late!
Adam you’re a culinary wizard of the cheap! This looks glorious!
Thank you Kristin x
Try chicken in white sauce with pelle pasta and cooked smoke bacon pieces... Lovely!
Looks good! Great pantry meal or something me for van lifers 😊
Deffo make this with residents
My papa used to make chicken and white sauce with vegetables and he called it chicken a la king he would serve it on buttered toast .😋
Sounds great that!
Great recipe! A tossed salad would flesh that meal out wonderfully. Great to see Mogs!
Absolutely Ted
That is another good dinner idea. It has got me thinking..................And as for the broccoli stalks, I use to throw them out, so your educational info was very good
The stalks take a little more cooking but they taste really nice
Simplicity is the best all day long. My son loves this type of meal when he comes to visit from the gym starving, ( just hungry really) 😂😂
I need to start going to the gym. Being unemployed means i'm less active and it's starting to show on the old tum haha
@@Adam_Garratt walk a mile a day for a week, then two miles a day for the second week, then the third week do three miles three times a week. You will never need a gym. 🙂
Lovely! Keep em coming please. X
another great, simple but tasty and nutritious meal Adam
Great video mate.
That comically oversized pan is gorgeous
It's called a saute pan. I love them because it's got high sides so you can stew in it, make sauces, use in the oven as well as frying stuff.
Never thought tinned chicken could look so good! Thankyou for the recipe.
Would you consider doing more fish recipes in the future? Would love to see a pan fried salmon or grilled prawn dish ☺️
Dyakuyu Oksana. Yes definitely want to do more fish dishes. I love prawns so much, with plenty of garlic butter 😋
That honestly looks so good Adam. In a word brilliant as always from you. Thank you.Lovely to see you Mogs as well. X
Thanks Fay x
Love stuff like this. Especially at the moment.
Happy to help mate
Yum!! Thank you, Adam, super cheap and so good! A pantry series would be fab. Love seeing Mogs, too. Glad your fridge is up and running! 💜
Thank you my friend 😊
I love pasta 👍 thanks Adam, hope all is good with you 😁
Yes all good thank you Les. Hope you're doing ok too

It's up and running as I type. Need to fill it with other stuff though as it's only got beer and milk in it lol
A great recipe as always Mr. Garrett! , hello Mogs :) , Hope your fridge freezer is up and running now. Have a great weekend xxx
It's all set up and working. Only got beer in it though as I need to do a good shop 😂
@@Adam_Garratt huzzah! Living the good life 🍻😆
🍻🍺🥃 .... cheers! xx
That looks amazing! I might try this with a bit of curry powder in it instead of the basil.
That would work a treat. You could char the broccoli too for a different flavour
I do the basic recipe of this, but will try your fancier version!!
Hope you like it mate
Hey Adam and Mogs, that looks lovely, deffo gunna make that 😋 xx
Hey Sarah 😘
Keep up the good work pal! Great tips for making a tasty dish on a budget :)
Will do my friend
That looks superb Adam.
Cheers Rob
@@Adam_Garratt thinking of doing something a bit similar but with chorizo , cream and chopped tomatoes with tagliatelle over the next couple of days.
That looks fab Adam, mught have to give it a go xx
Thanks Tina love x

You're all the best! 😘

He was not impressed when I had to take the washing out lol. He had a bed but never used it. I think it's because it had my scent on it and it comforts him
Brilliant!
I buy this all the time 👍🏻 I use it for chicken and mushroom pie but this looks nice and something I never thought of .
Ideal for a pie filling. I just wish they had a bit more chicken in them. Also, the chicken can sometimes be a little dry. But it did the job anyway
@@Adam_Garratt yeah can be dry , I find it depends what brand you buy ?
And I always thought that's somewhat illegal. I do this once in a while with mushroom soup. That's so good!
If it works it works right 😁
Looks extra scrummy, (as per usual), mate! 👍🏻😋 It's 11:15pm here in Sydney, what with Daylight Saving Summer Time, and the weather has been quite the opposite of the UK too, stiflingly hot and humid! 🥵 So glad I caught this before toddling off to beddie byes! 😄
I hate the hot weather. Much prefer the cooler months. Have a good sleep mate

Fridge is now in place and working great. Full of beer 😂
@@Adam_Garratt that's the stuff..lol
Loved it. Aussie Bob. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it mate
Thanks Adam, another great recipe, looking forward to seeing your next installment. Hope your new fridge arrives soon. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Sheila.x Fridge is working great.
You're doing God's work, Adam. Think I saw one of Mogs hairs when you stired in the chicken tho ha ha 😂
Haha good spot! I noticed that whilst editing. 😂

That's ok, just adds flavour !🤣
Easy and quick comfort food 😀 looks so delicious!! Much ❤️ Annie

Thank you so much!
Great little recipe Adam, I love a good pasta!
Did you get new pans? They look really nice!
I'm a bit confused though. Who was moving your camera while filming? Mogs? 🤯
Yep new pans mate, and as for the camera it's called being a clever clogs 😂
Add some steamed chicken breast cut inot chunks to bulk it up.
Wow.. fantastic..rushing off to buy a tin of the chicken today .well done.. genius..👌😋
Hope you enjoy, Jan!
🇦🇺 honestly it has never been on our shelves in Australia chicken in white sauce ???.cream of chicken soup id substitute at a guess .
Absolutely Lisa
I thought you could add some canned chicken to it for extra chicken looks good
Yep you could add a bit extra for more chickeny goodness
Looks very tasty as always!!!
Nice one sir

I always pimp up store pizzas. I've yet to find one that is actually good right out the box
@@Adam_Garratt hmmm, you could put sauce on top of it and basiclly make a double pizza.
I wonder why Americans are called fat? 🤣🤣🤣🍕🍕
I don't think that chicken in white sauce even exists in Australia, not that I've ever been looking for it
You are not missing much in it's raw form lol
In my Co-Op that Princes Chicken tin cost £2.70
They have ridiculous prices don't they.
My son loved that, thank you. How's the new fridge freezer?
Working like a dream Helen 😁
@@Adam_Garratt I'm so glad to hear that Adam, one cannot do without one's refrigerator. 🥳🎉👏🍾

If you can get canned bechamel, that would work as well. Just combine the two
Get a can if chicken + a can of cream of chicken soup- sorted.
Looks good Adam, I’m not sure if we have canned chicken in sauce in the states. I’m sure cream of chicken soup would work?
You could use that, but I'd add in a bit more chicken maybe
@@Adam_Garratt when I go to work this week I need to look and see if we have that product.
Well I checked my store and no chicken in sauce sold here.
Thought you're on the move to a new flat.
Got to find one yet 😂
I can't find the canned chicken product in the USA. Would cream of chicken soup + a can of just chicken be a close enough replacement?
Absolutely
never seen chicken in a can
Most budget stores and supermarkets sell it here in the UK.
Omg so good 😂🎉❤
Thank you 😊
@@Adam_Garratt no problem 😌
Yay Mogz!
👋🐈
How's the fridge mate?
It's fab. Plenty of beer in it 🤣
Moving camera shots .. 👀 #Spielberg
Makes such a difference to the production value doesn't it
@@Adam_Garratt I was like .. whoa 🤯
Are you an actual chef in real life Adam?
No not a professional Chef. Just someone that loved to cook and teach others
😋😋
Does that qualify as cheap eats ? I think it looks Abfab even without the fridge. Send me a pic of the new one on messenger Hahaha show me your I’ll show you mine 😄
Absolutely. Total cost came in under £4 easy
i make this and add bacon mmmmmm
Bacon makes everything better doesn't it
3:54, repeat, repeat, repeat
😂
Your fridge has no money?
😂
I would’ve added an extra breast of chicken to it
Yep you can do that. There's not a whole lot of chicken in it
Great video Adam
