My lighter version of the classic creamy chicken pie, this is the perfect autumn dish quick easy and a crowd pleaser every time. Lets go:
Ingredients: Serves 5 (501 calories 39.1g protein per serving)
1 leek finely chopped
250g chestnut mushrooms
1 tbsp minced garlic
1 onion finely chopped
650g chicken breast chopped into bitesize pieces
150g lighter soft cheese or light creme freshe
1 tbsp dried tarragon
2 tbsp plain flour
2 tbsp dijon mustard
400ml chicken stock
Puff pastry 375g
1 tbsp olive oil
1 egg yolk
Method:
- On a medium heat add 1 tbsp olive oil and chicken to the pan season and cook for 5-7 mins until brown then remove from the pan.
- Add your onions, leeks, garlic, and mushrooms to the pan with a drop of water cook until softened then add 1 tbsp dried tarragon and season well. Add 2 tbsp plain flour mix together then gradually add the stock until a thick sauce begins to form.
- Add the soft cheese and mustard and mix together and season to taste. Add the cooked chicken back to the pan mix into the mixture then lay the puff pastry on top of the pan.
- Crimp the edge of the pastry to the sides (any left our pastry decorate the pie with I made a few leaves with mine). Beat one egg yolk in a bowl then brush over the top of the pie and make a few folk holes in the top of the pie as seen in the video.
- Place in an oven at 180c for 20-25 mins until nicely golden and you’re ready to eat. Enjoy!
