To prepare, simply remove the outer packaging. You can heat this meal in a microwave or an oven. For microwave preparation, vent the film and heat on high for a few minutes until thoroughly heated through. If using an oven, transfer the contents to an oven-safe dish, cover with foil, and bake at a moderate temperature until hot. Stirring halfway through heating can ensure even warming and prevent the sauce from separating.
