Preparation

Thaw the puff pastry and divide it into two parts. Roll one part into a layer 1.5-2 mm thick.
Place a sheet of parchment on a baking tray and place the rolled out dough on it.
Now prepare the minced meat filling for the pie. Cut the chicken fillet into pieces approximately 1 cm in size.
Salt and pepper the meat.
Then peel the onion and cut it into thin quarter rings.
Grate hard cheese onto coarse grater.
Add the onion and cheese to the meat and mix the minced meat thoroughly.
Place the filling on the dough and smooth it out, leaving free edges on each edge (about 3 cm).
Roll out the second half of the dough into the same size as the first half. This will be the top of the chicken pot pie. Prick the dough frequently with a fork to allow excess air to escape through these holes while baking.
Beat the egg and brush it onto the free edges of the dough on which the filling is spread. Then cover the pie with the second layer of dough and use your fingers to press it against the bottom layer so that they are better connected and the meat juice does not leak out.
Using a knife or roller, cut off excess dough around the edges.
Brush the top of the pie generously with beaten egg.
Bake the pie at a temperature of 200-210 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Its surface should become a pleasant golden color.
Delivery ready pie out of the oven, let it cool for 10-15 minutes. During this time, the juice inside will thicken a little and become like a sauce.
Cut the chicken pie into portioned pieces and serve. Bon appetit!

1. Chicken fillet, champignon mushrooms, green onions- this is a classic combination.
2. Chicken fillet, butter + vegetable oil, onion - fry everything, add grated cheese, then add nutmeg and pour cream over everything - it turns out almost “bechamel sauce”.
3. Chicken fillet pie with vegetables. Almost any vegetables are suitable for chicken: potatoes, broccoli, regular cabbage white, sweet bell pepper, greens, etc. Try different options.
I always coat chicken pie egg so that the crust turns out nice and glossy. Can be sculpted on top figured dough, how in . Or make a beautiful lattice, like in this one. Bon appetit!

You can't hit anyone now simple pie with banal chicken, since absolutely everyone, even novice cooks, seems to know how to cook it.
However, such products are often similar to each other, like two peas in a pod, and are just an incomprehensible (often almost inedible) dough mass with a chicken flavor. Therefore, I decided today to teach the respected public how to cook the perfect and most the right pie from tender puff pastry with chicken(as chicken breast, fillet or minced meat), which is completely different from all the others, especially unlike a store-bought pie, is very tasty and can add such a welcome zest to your recipe box.
Puff closed pie with boiled chicken - an old, almost ancient Slavic dish. Our ancestors consumed them not only on weekends and holidays, but literally every day, since chicken meat was inexpensive in those days, but very, very tasty and satisfying.
Kitchen tools: a baking sheet with high edges with a diagonal of 25 cm or a round mold with a diameter of 28 cm, bowls with a capacity of 350 - 950 ml (several pieces), a frying pan with a non-stick coating with a diameter of about 20 cm, a rolling pin for rolling out dough, a cutting board (wooden only), a metal whisk , a fine sieve, kitchen scales or other measuring utensils, a grater, a sharp knife and a wooden spatula.
Required Ingredients
Important! This pie can also be made from puff pastry dough, since the chicken filling can withstand literally any experimentation. However, it is best to buy or make it yourself without yeast, it fits best classic recipe, according to which we are now baking our pie.
Did you know? If desired, you can also add additional components to the standard filling recipe that will change the taste of your chicken puff pastry for the better and give it the desired variety of flavors - we took potatoes as a basis, but no one will forbid you to add mushrooms or cheese to it.
Before you start cooking chicken pie Wash all utensils and utensils thoroughly(even if you washed them the day before) using degreasing detergents. This is to prevent your dough from picking up any excess old fat left over from other foods that may have been contained in the pan.
Preparation
Important! Are your chicken pieces uncomfortably thick? No problem, beat them with a baker's mallet on all sides, and they will not only bake perfectly, but will also become much more tender and delicate.
Preparing the filling
Did you know? It's time to season our filling so that the standard and boring salt and pepper do not make up our main bouquet. First of all, I highly recommend adding fresh chopped herbs (such as basil or parsley), as well as available cooking herb mixtures. I love you very much Provencal herbs, add them too to improve the flavor of your pie!
Assembling and baking the pie
- Set up the oven to heat up up to 180 degrees.
- Lightly coat a baking tray or mold with margarine.
- Divide the dough into two unequal parts: one larger, the other smaller.
Important! If you want to bake open pie from puff pastry with chicken, then do not divide the dough into parts, but roll it out in a whole, even layer. Just remember that your layer should be thicker, about 5 mm.
- Roll out most of it on a table sprinkled with a spoon of flour to a thickness of 2 mm.
- Carefully place the layer on a baking sheet, leaving the edges to hang down.
- Place the filling on it and smooth it out with a spatula or spoon.
- Roll out the second part of the dough to the same thickness.
- Cover the filling with it and fold the edges of both layers.
- Gently but firmly pinch the edges together.
- Lightly beat the egg with a whisk and cover the surface of the pie with it.
- Sprinkle the product with sesame seeds on top.
You can also sprinkle the pie with regular sunflower seeds, as well as finely grated cheese. Don't try to cover the cake with ground nuts, however.– they don’t go well with chicken.
- Place the mold or baking sheet in the oven. Bake for about 35 minutes then we check for readiness.
- Remove the hot pie from the oven and leave to cool.
Ready! Now take your time, we still need to design your product accordingly. Best to decorate beautifully greens pie, as well as fresh cherry tomatoes and, for those who like spicy foods, young garlic. Honestly, more appetizing design I haven’t seen it yet, so try it too. Pie recommended to eat hot, but don’t worry - he won’t even live until the evening, or I don’t understand anything about pies.
My favorite puff pastry pie with chicken, because it is very quick and easy to prepare, and it tastes rich and so delicious that it is impossible to tear yourself away from it. Some housewives prefer to make puff pastry themselves, but those who don’t have much time use store-bought dough. That's what I do too. The main thing is to choose quality product and defrost it until the right consistency. As a rule, such pies are prepared with vegetables, meat or even fish. I most often choose chicken meat, since it will definitely be soft and tender, and if you add more vegetables and hard cheese, then the pie will come out juicy and nutritious. To make the filling juicy, you need to add a couple of tablespoons of rich sour cream.
There are many recipes for puff pastry pies, because such a dish is tasty, satisfying and quite a lot, so it’s suitable for both family dinner, and on the festive table.

How to cook layer pie with chicken and mushrooms
To prepare a closed pie, you must first defrost the store-bought dough (about 1 hour), dividing it into two parts: the first is a larger piece, we will use it on the bottom layer, the second is a smaller piece to cover the top of the pie. Be sure to sprinkle the surface of the table with flour, and then leave the dough to defrost, then it will not stick.
Wash the chicken fillet and cut into small pieces.
Peel the onion and cut into medium-sized cubes.
Grate the peeled carrots on a coarse grater.
Now you need to fry the meat a little in a heated frying pan with vegetable oil, on each side for several minutes.
Next, add the prepared onions and carrots to the meat. Add a little salt and pepper. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring constantly.
We clean the champignons not too thinly, into equal slices.
Add them to the rest of the vegetables and chicken, add a little more salt and pepper. After 5 minutes, add sour cream and continue cooking for 15 minutes, under closed lid. Then remove from heat and cool.
While the vegetables and meat are stewing, let’s work on the already defrosted dough. First, roll out a large piece of dough, 0.5 cm thick, so that it becomes a square, but suitable in size for the baking pan, place it on the bottom of the pan, greased with vegetable oil. And we make the second piece a little thinner, but the same size; we need it to cover the top of the pie.
Place the finished cooled filling on the dough.
Rub one boiled egg on top. Boil the egg ahead of time so you have it on hand.
Next, generously add grated hard cheese.
Cover the pie with the second piece of rolled out dough. I put a cross on the cross. Carefully seal the edges of the dough. Brush the top with one raw egg. Place the covered pie in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for 40-50 minutes, until fully cooked.
Cool the finished pie and cut into pieces. Now it can be served. I think it will delight your guests and loved ones with its taste!
