Step 1:
You will need ….
4 cooked chicken breasts, cubed
150 g button mushrooms, quartered
600 ml mushroom soup
50 g parsley, chopped
1 packet of ready-to-roll puff pastry
1 beaten egg for glazing
salt and pepper
1 oven dish
1 pastry brush
1 wooden spoon
1 pastry shape cutter
1 knife
Step 2:
Preheat the oven
Set the temperature of the oven to 180ºC (350ºF/ gas mark 4).
Step 3:
Mix the ingredients
Mix together the mushroom soup, cubed chicken, mushrooms and parsley. Season with salt and pepper and stir well.
Step 4:
Transfer to oven dish
Spoon the chicken mix into the oven dish, smooth it over and push it down lightly into the dish.
Step 5:
Cover and brush
Unroll the pastry onto a flat surface and using a sharp knife, cut out enough pastry to cover the pie. Do not discard the excess pastry as we'll need it later on. Lay the pastry over the pie dish and lightly push down the edges with your finger tips. Trim off the excess pastry hanging over the sides and push down the edges once more. Finally using your pastry cutter, cut out three squares from the left over pastry.
Step 6:
Glaze and decorate the pie
Brush the pie generously with the egg wash. Use the pastry squares to decorate the top of the pie and brush with the egg wash once again.
Step 7:
Bake
Place the pie in the oven and bake for 20 minutes.
Step 8:
Serve
When golden brown, remove the pie from the oven, slice and serve while piping hot. And that's how you make Chicken and Mushroom Pie the VideoJug way
