  • 1 homemade pie crust ((2 round))
  • 4 cups cooked chicken (shredded*)
  • 6 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 medium yellow onion ((1 cup chopped))
  • 2 medium carrots ((1 cup) thinly sliced)
  • 8 oz white or brown mushrooms ((stems discarded), sliced)
  • 3 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tsp fine sea salt (or to taste, plus kosher salt to garnish)
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper (plus more to garnish)
  • 1 cup frozen peas (do not thaw)
  • 1/4 cup parsley (finely chopped, plus more to garnish)
  • 1 egg (beaten for egg wash)

Method

16 steps
  1. Trim the cooked chicken and shred it into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Slice the mushrooms, chop the onion, thinly slice the carrots, mince the garlic, and finely chop the parsley.
  3. Place a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat and melt the butter.
  4. Add the onion and carrots and sauté for about 8 minutes, until softened.
  5. Add the mushrooms and garlic and sauté for another 5 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender.
  6. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and cook, stirring constantly, for about 2 minutes until lightly golden.
  7. Gradually add the chicken stock and heavy cream. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1 minute, until thickened into a gravy.
  8. Season with the salt and black pepper.
  9. Stir in the shredded chicken, frozen peas, and parsley, then remove from the heat and allow the filling to cool slightly.
  10. Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F). Roll out one pastry disc and fit it into a 23 cm (9-inch) pie dish.
  11. Spoon the filling into the pastry case.
  12. Roll out the second pastry disc and place it over the filling.
  13. Tuck and crimp the edges, then cut 5–6 slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
  14. Brush the pastry with beaten egg and, if desired, sprinkle with a little coarse salt and black pepper.
  15. Bake in the centre of the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, until the crust is deeply golden. If the edges brown too quickly, protect them with a foil pie shield.
  16. Rest the pie for about 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
