Cheats Roast Chicken

A very quick, inexpensive and easy way to use up cooked chicken.

2 cups shredded cooked chicken
1 onion, finely diced
1 clove garlic, finely diced
2 Tbs butter
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1 cup fresh breadcrumbs
1 packet of powdered chicken gravy made in a jug according to directions on the packet

Place the chicken in a shallow oven dish and pour over gravy.  Saute onion and garlic in the butter.  Remove from heat and stir in the herbs and breadcrumbs.  Spread the topping evenly over chicken.  Cover and refrigerate or freeze (defrost before reheating).  Reheat uncovered at 180 degrees C until top is crisp and dish heated through - approximately 30-40 minutes.
