Time 1h5m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 slices streaky bacon
1 teaspoon garlic oil
5 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1/2 lb chicken thigh fillet, cut into small strips
7/8 ounce flour
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon butter
10 1/8 ounces hot chicken stock
1 tablespoon marsala wine
puff pastry sheet

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. In a heavy-based frying pan, fry the bacon in the oil until beginning to crisp. Then add the sliced mushrooms and soften them in the pan with the bacon.
  • Turn the chicken strips in the flour and thyme and then melt the butter in the bacon and mushroom pan. Add the chicken and all the flour left in the bag. Stir around with the bacon and mushrooms until the chicken begins to color.
  • Pour in the hot chicken stock and Marsala, stirring to form a sauce and let this bubble away for about 5 minutes.
  • Take two deep oven-proof bowls and make a pastry rim for each one by placing a strip curled around the top of each bowl. Dampen the edges with a little water to make the pastry stick. Cut a circle bigger than the top of each pie for the lid, and then divide the chicken filling between the two bowls. Dampen the rim of the pastry again and then pop on the lid for each bowl, sealing the edges with your fingers or the underneath of the prongs of a fork. Cook the pot pies for about 20 minutes turning them around halfway through cooking. Once cooked, they should have puffed up magnificently.

CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM PIE



Chicken and Mushroom Pie image

My version of the British classic, chicken and mushroom pie. I'm relatively new to cooking. This is one of my first creations, actually. I have also made it using homemade pastry. Delicious but takes a bit longer and I prefer store-bought crusts if time is a factor. Please provide feedback and any tweaks you make when trying it out!

Time 1h25m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

½ cup salted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 cup baby bella mushrooms, chopped
1 large onion, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
1 medium carrot, sliced
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 cloves garlic, minced
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup grated sharp Cheddar cheese
½ teaspoon prepared yellow mustard, or to taste
1 (9 inch) double-crust pie pastry, thawed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk in flour. Continue to whisk until the flour combines thoroughly with butter, 2 to 3 minutes. Add milk, a little at a time, whisking to prevent burning, until thickened. Keep stirring until it begins to boil. Reduce heat and allow to simmer.
  • Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add chicken and cook and stir until no longer pink in the centers, 7 to 10 minutes. Add mushrooms, onion, celery, carrot, rosemary, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper and cook until they begin to soften, about 10 minutes. Add the milk mixture and stir thoroughly. Simmer for an additional 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in Cheddar cheese and mustard until cheese is melted.
  • Lay 1 sheet of pie pastry in the prepared pie dish. Add the chicken mixture to the dish. Cover pie with remaining pastry, pinching the sides together and trimming off any excess dough. Cut a slit in the center of the pie for ventilation.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes.

DOUBLE-CRUST CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM PIE



Double-Crust Chicken and Mushroom Pie image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 1/2 cups plus 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon sugar
1 cup (2 sticks) plus 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut in small pieces
1 three- to four-pound chicken
4 cups Homemade Chicken Stock, or canned low-sodium chicken broth, skimmed of fat
8 ounces pearl onions
10 ounces red potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
5 medium carrots, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
14 ounces shiitake, cremini, or button mushrooms, quartered if large
3/4 cup milk
1 ten-ounce package frozen peas, thawed
2 tablespoons fresh thyme, leaves
2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Combine 2 1/2 cups flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and the sugar in a food processor. Add 1 cup butter; process until mixture resembles coarse meal, 8 to 10 seconds. Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup ice water in a slow steady stream through feed tube with machine running, until dough holds together, about 30 seconds. Turn dough onto piece of plastic wrap; divide in half. Press each half into flat circles, wrap each in plastic, and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • Place chicken and stock in a medium stockpot. Add enough water just to cover chicken. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer gently until chicken is cooked through, 45 minutes. Using tongs, transfer chicken to a plate; set aside until cool enough to handle. Strain 2 cups stock into a measuring cup, and set aside. (Remaining stock may be frozen for another use.)
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with rack in center. Cook pearl onions in a medium pan of simmering water for 15 minutes. Drain, and rinse under cool water. Peel onions; set aside. Remove skin and bones from chicken, and discard. Shred chicken into bite-size pieces, and set aside.
  • Melt remaining butter in a large high-sided skillet over medium heat. Add potatoes, carrots, and onions, and cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes begin to turn golden. Add mushrooms, and cook 5 minutes more. Add remaining flour, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add reserved chicken stock and milk; bring to a simmer. Cook until thick and bubbly, stirring constantly. Stir in reserved chicken, peas, thyme, sage, and salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat, and let cool slightly.
  • Beat egg with 1 teaspoon water to make glaze. On a lightly floured surface, roll out half the dough to a 12-inch circle. Transfer dough to a 9 1/2-inch glass pie plate with dough overlapping top of pan. Trim dough to about a 1-inch overhang. Carefully spoon filling into dough.
  • Roll out remaining dough to a 10-inch circle, and transfer to top of filling. Fold overlapping edges of dough under to make a firm edge. Use fingers to pinch a decorative border. Use a knife to make four to five slits into the center of the pie. Brush top of dough with egg glaze. Bake pie on a baking sheet until dough is golden brown, rotating pie halfway through for even baking, 45 to 60 minutes.

CHICKEN, MUSHROOM, AND BACON PIE

In 'Nigella Express' by Nigella Lawson; 12 chicken thighs seems like a lot for 2 servings; unless they are tiny thighs, you should use your judgment.

  • Pour in the hot stock and Marsala, stirring to form a sauce; let this bubble for about 5 minutes.
  • Take two 1 1/4 cup pie pots (if yours are deeper, don't worry, there will simply be more space between the contents and the puff pastry top) and make a pastry rim for each one; an approximate 1/2-inch strip curled around the top of each pot; dampen the edges with a little water to make the pastry stick.
  • Cut a circle bigger than the top of each pie-pot for the lid; divide the chicken filling between the two.
  • Dampen the edges again and then pop on the top of each pie, sealing the edges with your fingers or the underneath of the prongs of a fork.
  • Cook the pies for about 20 minutes, turning them around halfway through cooking; once cooked, they should puff up magnificently.

LYNSEY'S CHUNKY CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM PIE



Lynsey's Chunky Chicken and Mushroom Pie image

I love this recipe, it is easy and fairly quick to make, I just made it up one day. It uses simple, everyday ingredients yet could be served at a fairly formal occasion. Best thing about it is that you can make it the day before, keep it in the fridge put it in the oven just before your guests/family arrive, then the air will be filled with an amazing, savoury smell!

Categories     Chicken

Time 55m

Yield 1 pie, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
150 g button mushrooms, quartered
2 tablespoons sunflower oil
300 ml milk
200 ml chicken stock (from a cube is fine)
2 tablespoons flour
50 g butter
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
fresh grated nutmeg
salt
1 ready to roll shortcrust pastry, rolled fairly thinly
beaten egg, to glaze

Steps:

  • First heat the oil in a frying pan.
  • Add the chicken, cut into bite size but still chunky, pieces.
  • Stir-fry it until it is white all over, then add the mushrooms and continue to stir-fry until the chicken is golden in places and the mushrooms cooked.
  • Add the garlic, stir for 1 minute then turn out the heat.
  • In a separate, preferably nonstick, saucepan, melt the butter and stir in the flour.
  • Continue to stir for 3 minutes over a fairly low heat.
  • Mix together the stock and milk.
  • Pour this gradually onto the flour, whisking all the time to avoid lumps.
  • Allow to cook over a low heat for around 5 minutes, whisking frequently.
  • Add the parsley, season with salt and nutmeg.
  • If you find the sauce is too thick, gradually whisk in a little extra stock or milk.
  • It should just coat the back of a spoon.
  • Now add this to the pan with the chicken and mushrooms, mix and then pour into a pie dish.
  • Top with the rolled out pastry- I like to decorate with mushroom shapes cut out of pastry scraps, and brush with beaten egg.
  • Now bake for 20-25 minutes in a hot oven, about 200°C until golden brown and smelling delicious!
  • I like to serve this with steamed broccoli and buttered jersey new potatoes.
