There's nothing wrong with taking a shortcut to a good meal, and BBQ chicken from a supermarket or a specialist takeaway store is a great way to get dinner done in a rush.

Use leftovers for a light lunch or second dinner, and don't throw the chicken skin in the bin! It’s a great source of collagen and vitamin K2.
