Chicken and Vegetable Pie

A whimsical mix without rhyme or reason in this tasty chicken and vegetable pie with puff pastry, diced chicken breast, yellow bell pepper, and red onion!

Let’s say it’s a stew with a pastry shell that captures the delicious juices formed during cooking and is simple, homemade, and appetizing.

IF you have two packs of ready-made pastry, you can make a pie by enclosing meat and vegetables inside, but remember to make a chimney, a hole in the center, so that cooking is even and the steam can escape, evaporating during baking.

FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE CHICKEN AND VEGETABLE PIE RECIPE

  • quick because I’ve already cooked everything before and it’s just a way to combine all the ingredients and bake the shell, which can be of puff pastry or also of shortcrust pastry.

  • I remove the skin of the red onion and the strings and seeds of the bell pepper and slice both into not too large, nor too small, cubes.

    In the wok, I put 2/3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and add the chopped onion and peppers, letting them stew over medium heat, stirring the preparation often.

    I chose not to have different cooking times based on the vegetable texture; truth be told, today I preferred to go fast!

  • I also added a pinch of chili flakes and after about 15 minutes, I removed the vegetables, and in the same pan, I added the diced chicken breast, cooking them for about ten minutes, always stirring over high heat.

    I season the vegetables and meat with salt and pepper and preheat the oven to 375/400°F (190/200°C) static.

  • I unroll the puff pastry package, keeping the parchment paper, and place it in my pie pan, for me with a perforated bottom.

    With a fork, I prick the bottom and then pour the chicken and vegetable mix, trying to level the filling of the savory pie.

  • With what remains, I make these thin pastry strips that, placed randomly, are just a lattice of ‘decoration’ for the filling.

    I bake and let it cook for about 25 minutes, maybe even less… a delicious and flavorful sauce forms that keeps the meat tender and the vegetables soft!

  • When cooking is done, I let it cool and bring it to the table for tasting!

    Enjoy your meal!
