May we never let things we can't have or don't have or shouldn't have, spoil our enjoyment of the things we do have and can have. For one of the greatest lessons in life is learning to be HAPPY without the things we can't or shouldn't have...

Super Easy Chicken Pie Recipe

Found this recipe in one of the blogs I've been following. Looks yummy and easy to make. Perhaps I shall give it a try one day.

You need :

2 chicken breasts (about 500g)
2 handfuls sliced mushrooms
1 onion, diced
2 Tbsps oil or 50g butter
2 Tbsp plain flour
2 cups stock
good splosh of white wine (optional)
fresh herbs (parsley, basil, whatever you have going)
2 sheets puff pastry
1 egg and dash of milk
salt, pepper

Cut chicken breasts into large chunks, place in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil then simmer for 10-15 minutes until chicken is cooked right through. Cut into smaller cubes. Meanwhile saute onions and mushrooms in oil or butter.

Butter up a pie dish/tart tin and place a sheet of your puff pastry in. Pour filling in and then top with the other sheet of puff pastry. Trim corners off and join the edges of the pastry together the whole way around. Brush with an egg wash of a beaten egg and a bit of milk. Bake in a preheated 190 degree oven for about 25 minutes, remove from the oven and enjoy.
