Chicken Pie
Ever been at a shop and they are advertising that they have marked the Hot chicken down to 1/2 price and walked past them because you didnt need one, well I don't walk past. I buy a couple and make chicken pies and freeze.

You will need
1 chicken
40g cooking marg
1/2 onion
some capsicum red & green
salt & pepper
1/3 cup flour
2 cups water with 2 heaped tsp chicken stock mixed in it.
2 sheets ready rolled puff pastry
Pull meat off bones and break into smallish pieces, finely chop onion and capsicum. Melt marg and add capsicum, onion and flour and stir till butter is absorbed, slowly add water and chicken stock and stir, it will thicken, add chicken pieces and allow to come to boil, then remove from stove. If you are planning to cook pie immediately then pour into pastry lined dish put another sheet of pastry on top, trim, brush with milk, put a couple of nicks in top with a knife to let steam out and bake at 200C till golden brown (approx 40 mins) If you are freezing uncooked, allow mixture to cool before pouring into pastry then put pastry sheet on top trim and put in plastic bag and freeze. I usually unfreeze, brush nick top and cook when required. If I have any filling left I make some individual pies and freeze, they are much nicer than bought ones. I sometimes have to take a hot dish if we go out, or if a friend is unwell and not coping I drop something like this off, or surprise daughter-inlaw and send her dinner all made and ready to cook. I put it on a courier and it is delivered to her door. So next time give it a try.
