Jamie: Fast and Simple - Season 1

Jamie Oliver strips back cooking to its essentials. To kick off the series, Jamie reveals how some quick preparation and letting the oven do the hard work can buy time with his Korean-inspired Gochujang chicken traybake. He also rattles out eight ways to use salmon fillets, a quesadilla toastie using store-cupboard staples, cheesy Bolognese buns and a no-cook banoffee fro-yo tart.

Jamie Oliver demonstrates the ultimate hands-off cooking method with a roast veg and Camembert fondue traybake that takes minutes to throw together. He also proves how simple batch cooking can be with his poached chicken, which can provide for multiple meals, including one of the simplest chicken pie recipes ever.

Jamie Oliver prepares a simple sesame and miso salmon in minutes and fish cakes that can be made using store-cupboard staples, before throwing together a gnarly lamb madras traybake that's prepped in minutes, leaving the oven to do the hard work. And Jamie's youngest son, River, helps him to whip up a hot and crispy ice cream parcel.

Jamie makes a creamy red pepper pasta dish and lets the oven do the work with a simple chicken and bread sauce traybake. He also showcases a big beef brisket that can be used for multiple meals and shares one of his store cupboard tips, which makes tinned beans the star of the show. The chef then wraps it all up with a foolproof pastry, as he rustles up a free-form strawberry tart.

Jamie Oliver makes a sweet pea chicken dish, and shows how to batch cook a sauce to rattle out anytime, including for a fast and simple spicy fish soup. He also puts together a chicken and mushroom traybake recipe that delivers big flavour with minimal effort, and finishes it all off by whizzing up the quickest dessert using trusty tins from the store cupboard.
