Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs (680g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 cups (240g) sliced mushrooms
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup (60g) butter
  • 1/3 cup (40g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups (480ml) chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 sheets of ready-rolled puff pastry
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until softened, then add the garlic and mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms are golden and any liquid has evaporated.
  2. Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until they are no longer pink. Sprinkle the flour over the mixture and stir to combine.
  3. Slowly pour in the chicken broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until it thickens.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
  5. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out one sheet of puff pastry and line a pie dish with it. Spoon the chicken and mushroom filling into the pastry-lined dish.
  6. Roll out the second sheet of puff pastry and place it over the filling. Trim any excess pastry and crimp the edges to seal. Brush the top with the beaten egg.
  7. Make a few slits in the pastry to allow steam to escape. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and the filling is bubbling.
  8. Let the pie cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
