2 refrigerated puff pastry sheets (thawed (not frozen) and rolled out)
4 strips of bacon (cooked til crisp and chopped)
8 ounces sliced mushrooms
2 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons minced garlic
3 cups shredded (or diced cooked chicken)
1 cup medium (or sharp cheddar cheese)
1 egg (whisked)
6 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup milk

Steps:

  • Stir in chicken and bacon for 1 minute, then stir in cream of chicken and cheddar cheese.

  • Bake on bottom rack for 25 minutes til crust is puffed and golden brown. Cool slightly before serving.

CREAMY CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM PIES

The trick to making sure that the bottoms of your pies are crispy and cooked through is pre-heating the sheet pan first. Because the filling is pre-cooked, the oven is set to a high temperature to speed up the cooking time.

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon olive oil
6 ounces sliced cremini mushrooms
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
5 ounces (1 cup) shredded rotisserie chicken
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon finely chopped chives
4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
All-purpose flour, for dusting
One (8-ounce) puff pastry sheet, thawed if frozen
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 small red onion, very thinly sliced
1 head butter lettuce, leaves separated or torn
10 chives, cut into 1-inch-long pieces

Steps:

  • For the pies: Place a large sheet pan on a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook, tossing the mushrooms occasionally, until they soften and turn golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the chicken, mustard and chives. Add the cream cheese and stir until the cheese is melted. Remove from the heat.
  • Lightly flour a work surface and roll the pastry into an 11-inch square. Cut the pastry in half. Divide the chicken and mushroom mixture in half and place each half on one end of each rectangle of pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch border on all sides.
  • Brush the border with the egg and fold over the other half of the puff pastry. Use a fork to crimp and seal the edges. Cut slits in the tops of the pies to vent. Brush the tops of the pies lightly with the egg. Transfer the pies to the hot baking sheet and bake until deep golden brown, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, for the salad: Whisk together the lemon juice, oil and mustard in a large bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Fold in the thinly sliced onions and toss occasionally to soften, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • When ready to serve, toss the lettuce and chives into the dressing.

Tips for Making Creamy Chicken and Mushroom Pies:

  • Use fresh ingredients. Fresh chicken, mushrooms, and vegetables will give your pies the best flavor.
  • Cook the chicken and mushrooms thoroughly. This will help to ensure that your pies are safe to eat and that the chicken is cooked through.
  • Use a good quality puff pastry. Puff pastry is a light and flaky pastry that will make your pies extra delicious.
  • Don't overfill the pies. Overfilling the pies will make them difficult to seal and they may burst in the oven.
  • Bake the pies until they are golden brown. This will ensure that the pastry is cooked through and the filling is heated through.
  • Let the pies cool slightly before serving. This will help to prevent the filling from spilling out when you cut into them.

Conclusion:

Creamy chicken and mushroom pies are a delicious and comforting meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight dinner. With a little planning and effort, you can make these pies at home and enjoy them with your family and friends.
