This one is perfect for you if you're looking to avoid piles of washing up.
It's not always simple finding recipes that won't take hours to cook - or clean up - but are still nutritious and seriously tasty. This one-pan Hunter's chicken might be the answer to your prayers if you are looking for something to enjoy on mid-week evenings, especially after a long hard day at work when you just can't bear to stand in your kitchen for ages cooking something and don't fancy yet another ready meal.
The best part is, it's easily prepared in advance, so you barely will even have to think about it before you're sitting down and tucking into enjoy it.
The recipe was posted by content creator Bethany Dobson, who posts motivational videos on her TikTok account and has an impressive 573,000 followers.
The easy-to-follow instructions make two portions, which Bethany says include 48g of protein and only 5g of fat. She explains that this is perfect "if you hate meal prep but don't want to spend 12 hours in the week cooking dinner every single night."

This is where her "single pan meal prep" comes in, "this is where we whack everything in a glass bowl, shove it in the oven for 40 minutes, and then forget about it, and then it's all done, no washing up".
Bethany uses two glass oven-proof dishes for her chicken, but you can use any suitably heatproof dish that you have in your cupboard. First things first, add 60g of rice, followed by half an onion - chopped - to both of your dishes.
Then add your chicken breast - this should be 175g for each dish at its raw weight - Bethany cuts hers with scissors because saving time is the name of the game here: "It's just efficiency" she says. Next, add a chopped bacon medallion to each dish, before seasoning well with salt and pepper, followed by chicken seasoning and garlic powder.
Bethany then advises you should add one teaspoon each of tomato sauce and BBQ sauce to each dish and "give those a good mix around until everything's covered."
Then grab a stock cube and mix it in a jug with 300ml of boiling water and split this across your two dishes equally. Then cook it in the oven at 180 degrees Celsius for forty minutes, before, she advises, you "whack a bit more BBQ sauce on there, and that's you done".
