Smoked Chicken, Mustard and Lemon Pie
Takes 10 mins plus 25 mins cooking time.
Serves 6
Ingredients
- 2 sheets of flaky puff pastry
- 2 cups of shredded or chopped smoked chicken
- 1 cup of sour cream
- 2 tablespoons of whole grain mustard
- zest of 1 lemon
- juice of half a small lemon
- 2-3 tablespoons of fresh chopped herbs
- Salt and pepper
- 3 tablespoons of milk
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200 C.
- Combine the chicken, sour cream, lemon juice and zest, mustard, herbs, salt and pepper in a large bowl and mix together.
- Place one sheet of pastry on a greased baking sheet or tray. Pile the ingredients (filling) on top of the pastry keeping a border of 2 cm clear around the edges. Brush the border with the milk.
- Take the 2nd sheet of pastry and gently stretch the shape over your hands. You want this pastry to fit over the pie filling and to cover the bottom pastry.
- Press the edges together using a fork. Prick the top of the pie several times to let the steam escape. Decorate with left over pastry if you like. Brush with milk.
- Bake until the pie is golden and puffed. About 25 mins.
