Easy Chicken and Leek Pie
Easy chicken leek pie made with puff pastry, family-friendly comfort food
12-18mo+
Milk
Ingredients
- olive oil
- 1 leek
- 1 carrot
- 500 g chicken
- 2 zucchini
- 300 ml chicken stock
- 1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
- 2 tbsp sour cream
- 1 sheet puff pastry
Steps
- Heat the oil in a fry pan over medium heat.
- Slice the leek thinly into rings (use the white and pale green parts, discard most of the dark green leaves). Sauté the leek in the oil.
- Finely dice the carrot and add to the pan. Continue sautéing the leek and carrot until both are tender and fragrant (about 5 minutes).
- Dice the chicken and add it to the fry pan to seal it. It does not need to be browned all over, as it will cook in the stock.
- Add the stock and grate the zucchini into the pan. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Leave to simmer for 20-30 minutes until the liquid reduces down significantly (this will be the pie filling). The zucchini releases moisture as it cooks, so wait before adding extra stock.
- Once the chicken and veggie mix has reduced, turn off the heat and stir through the mustard and sour cream.
- Transfer the chicken and leek mix into the pie dish.
- Top with puff pastry. Pierce the pastry with a knife to create a few holes for steam to escape. Brush the pastry with a little milk or egg wash if you like.
- Bake at 200 degrees Celsius for 15 minutes until the pastry is golden.
- Serve with mash and green veggies.
