Chicken ham and mushroom puff pastry pie

Chicken ham and mushroom puff pastry pie

Posted 2014-09-02 by Mummyathomefollow
This is a simple but tasty family friendly pie that is great for using up leftover roast chicken, although I often cook up some chicken breast to use instead.

The pie filling can be made up in advance and left in the fridge or frozen.



Preparation Time: 20 minutes
Cooking Time: 25 minutes
Makes: 6 servings

Ingredients
350g cooked chicken cut into even pieces
280g diced ham
80g butter
1 large onion, chopped
180g mushrooms, sliced
55g flour
200ml milk
150ml white wine
200ml chicken stock
200ml double cream
1tsp mixed herbs
1 packet puff pastry
Salt and pepper to season
1 egg, beaten

Method
  • Pre heat oven to 180°c, 160°c for fan ovens.
  • Mix the cooked chicken and ham in large bowl.
  • Melt 30g of butter in a saucepan and soften the onions for 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and gently cook for 5 minutes.
  • Add the cooked onions and mushrooms to the chicken and ham.

  • Melt the remaining butter and then stir in the flour.
  • Add the milk in slowly, whisking to form a smooth paste.

  • Pour in the wine and stock, whisking to a creamy consistency.
  • Stir in the cream and mixed herbs and season with salt and pepper
  • Mix the sauce in with the chicken, ham, mushrooms and onions and put into a 750ml pie/baking dish.

  • Roll out the pastry on a floured surface. Roll it large enough to cover the dish with a bit of overhang.

  • Cut a 1cm wide strip off the pastry to line the rim of the dish.

  • Brush a little egg round the rim and press the strips round the edge of the dish. Brush more egg over the rim once pastry strip added.
  • Place the pastry over the pie and trim off any overhang. Press round the rim with a fork to seal the pastry top and make a small hole in the middle of the pie.

  • Brush the pastry with egg and bake for 25 minutes, until the pie is golden.
