Chicken and Mushroom Pie
This delicious chicken and mushroom pie is filled with tender chicken, sautéed mushrooms, and a creamy sauce, all encased in a flaky pastry crust.
Ingredients - Serves 6
- Egg - 1, beaten (for egg wash)
- Puff pastry - 1 sheet, thawed
- Salt and pepper - To taste
- Thyme - 1 teaspoon
- Heavy cream - 1/2 cup
- Chicken broth - 1 cup
- All-purpose flour - 2 tablespoons
- Butter - 2 tablespoons
- Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
- Onion - 1, diced
- Mushrooms - 8 ounces, sliced
- Chicken breasts - 2, boneless and skinless, diced
Let's Get Started
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and cook until browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the mushrooms, onion, and garlic. Sauté until the mushrooms are golden and the onion is translucent.
- Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and onions, and stir to coat.
- Slowly pour in the chicken broth, stirring constantly. Cook until the mixture thickens.
- Stir in the heavy cream, thyme, salt, and pepper. Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet and mix well.
- Transfer the chicken and mushroom mixture to a pie dish.
- Roll out the puff pastry sheet to fit the top of the pie dish. Place the pastry over the filling and press the edges to seal. Cut a few slits in the pastry to allow steam to escape.
- Brush the pastry with beaten egg for a golden finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and the filling is bubbling.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Enjoy the delicious chicken and mushroom pie!
