Chicken, Sweetcorn and Broccoli Pie
Prep Time10 Minutes
Servings4
Cook Time35 Minutes
Ingredients
1 pinch Black Pepper
200 g Broccoli florets
2 - Chicken Breast boneless, skinless and cut into bite-sized pieces
100 ml Chicken Stock Cube
1 tsp Dried Basil Leaves
10 g Low Fat Butter
3 tsp Low Fat Milk
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 small Onion diced
10 g Plain Flour
1 sheet Puff Pastry thawed if frozen
1 pinch Salt
30 g SuperValu Sweetcorn 326g
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 200oC/gas mark 6.
- Warm the butter and oil in a large pan set over a medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken, onion and basil and cook for a few minutes, until the chicken is sealed. Season with salt and pepper, then add the sweetcorn and flour and cook for a few minutes more. Reduce the heat to medium, then add the stock and cook for about 10 minutes.
- Fill a separate pot with water and bring to the boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 3 minutes, then remove from the pan with a slotted spoon. Add to the chicken mixture and cook for another 2 minutes. The sauce should be thick, but add 2 teaspoons of the milk to give it a creamy appearance and to thin it out a bit. Put into an ovenproof pie dish and set aside.
- Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and measure it to make sure it's big enough to cover your baking dish, plus a little extra to go over the edge. Place over the dish and roll over the edges with a rolling pin, making sure all the filling is sealed in. Prick the pastry all over with a fork and brush with the remaining teaspoon of milk. Bake in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown.
