CHICKEN POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 220°C/425°F/gas 7.
• Place a 30cm non-stick ovenproof frying pan on a high heat, with a smaller non-stick pan on a medium heat alongside. Pour 1 tablespoon of olive oil into the larger pan.
• Peel and roughly chop the onions, adding them to the larger pan as you go.
• Roughly chop two- thirds of the thighs, finely chop the rest, and add to the onion pan. Cook for 6 minutes, or until golden, stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, place the mushrooms in the dry pan, tearing up any larger ones. Let them toast and get nutty for 4 minutes, then tip into the chicken pan and strip in half the thyme leaves.
• Remove the pan from the heat, add a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, then stir in 1 tablespoon of red wine vinegar and 150ml of water.
• Working quickly, roll out the pastry so it's 2cm bigger than the pan, then place it over the filling, using a wooden spoon to push it into the edges.
• Very lightly criss-cross the pastry, then brush with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Poke the remaining thyme sprigs into the middle of the pie.
• Bake at the bottom of the oven for 15 minutes, or until golden and puffed up. Easy!

• Add stock, and bring to a simmer. Cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add chicken and cream. Simmer until chicken is just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Return bacon to saucepan. Let cool.
• Divide filling among eight 4-inch (12 ounce) ramekins.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Make the topping: Roll out pate brisee to a 1/4-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut out 8 circles that are 1 inch wider than the ramekins. Top ramekins with dough, and crimp edges with a fork to seal. Brush dough with egg wash. Freeze for 20 minutes.

COUNTRY CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM POT PIE

Steps:

• Combine 1 cup boiling water and chicken bouillon in a liquid measure; set aside to dissolve.
• Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a pot over medium heat. Add onions and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and add mushrooms; fry for about 3 minutes. Remove onion-mushroom mixture from the pot.
• Add remaining butter to the pot with chicken pieces. Stir chicken and splash Worcestershire sauce over top. Cook, stirring continuously, until chicken is seared on all sides but not cooked through, about 3 minutes. Stir in onion-mushroom mixture, bouillon, and pepper.
• Add milk and 1/4 cup water; boil for 20 minutes. Add frozen vegetables and boil for 10 more minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch oven-proof dish and lay down bottom crust in it. Set top crust aside.
• After filling has boiled for 10 minutes, use a large ladle to scoop out approximately 1 cup sauce from the mixture and pour into a cup. Add cornstarch to the cup and stir until all lumps have dissolved. Add cornstarch mixture back to the pot; cook and stir until filling has thickened to your liking.
• Bake bottom crust in the preheated oven for approximately 5 minutes. Remove from the oven, add filling, and cover with the top crust, making sure the edges are sealed. Make cute decorations with pastry cut-offs and use a knife to make several small slits in the top to allow steam to escape. Lightly paint egg yolk over the top crust.
• Bake until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Ovens vary so baking time may vary-keep an eye on it.

CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F (200g). Roast chicken on a sheet pan with a rack until cooked through 45 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Roll the pastry out to remove any seams. Score decorative diagonal lines, in opposing directions, vertically along the pastry, being careful not to cut through the pastry, otherwise the sauce will rise up and spill out over your browning pastry and prevent it from puffing up fully.
• Place pastry on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and keep refrigerated until ready to use.
• In a 10" (25cm) cast-iron skillet, cook bacon until crispy. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon, onto a plated lined with a paper towel. Keep the fat in the pan!
• Cook the onions in the bacon fat until tender and fragrant. Then add the thyme and continue to cook for 1-2 minutes. Then remove onions with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a large bowl and set them aside. Keep fat!
• Cook mushrooms in the bacon fat, or add 1 tablespoon (15g) of butter if needed. Sautee until golden brown and they release their juices. Add mushrooms to a large bowl. Do not wash out the pan.
• Melt the butter in the pan, once foamy add the flour, whisk until a paste forms, then add the chicken broth, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and haevy cream (if using) and stir until combined. Allow to simmer.
• Shred the cooked chicken off the bone into large shredded chunks. Set aside.
• Add back in the mushrooms and onions, and the chicken. Stir to combine.
• Taste for seasoning. Add salt and pepper if needed. Allow to cool for 15 mins. Meanwhile prep the puff pastry.
• Remove the pastry from the refrigerator. Transfer it to the cooled filling, tuck pastry under on all sides, into the pan, brush with beaten egg. If pastry has warmed up too much, pop the whole pan in the freezer for 10 minutes to firm back up before baking. Bake at 400F for 20-25 mins. Serve immediately oven to table.
