In the sim (pleaaase, only in the sim!), toggle on the autopilot at 30ft AGL, shut down the engine, order a coffee and watch it fly!
The autopilot flies the a/c very well with an engine out but I don't think that's what the person who asked the question meant. Some aircraft (B777 is one) have a system that adds boot full of rudder after an engine failure to take some of the load required to keep straight which is a bit different.
