    Creamy Chicken Pie Ingredients

    • Chicken – you can use either chicken thighs or breast for this recipe.
    • Mustard – I use Wholegrain Mustard but you can also use Dijon or Old English Mustard if you prefer.
    • Cornflour – this is an important ingredient as it will help to thicken the creamy sauce.

    Tips for Making these Creamy Chicken Pies:

    • You can use either chicken breast or thigh for this recipe, chicken thighs will be more tender when cooked.
    • As the pie mixture is already cooked, the cooking time will be reduced to the time it takes to cook the pastry,
    • This recipe can be made into a large family sized pie, you will just need to add to the cooking time.
    • Once cooked, these pies can be stored in the fridge and enjoyed within 3 days. Alternatively you can freeze.
    • To re-heat, pre-heat your oven to 190 degrees Celsius (fan-forced) and cook for 10 – 12 minutes or until heated through when tested with a skewer.
