Chicken pie (Slimming World friendly)
Now this not syn free but its not too bad if you have a fancy for a bit of pastry this is for you. I made this when I had some leftover chicken although I always thought you could never have pastry on Slimming World this worked out ok not syn free but not too bad. You could also add some ham or mushrooms or some vegetables too.
I liked that I made these for the family and no one thought it was a 'Slimming' meal, Tasty and satisfying and felt a bit naughty ...
Chicken Pie
100g jus-rol light puff pastry
12oz leftover cooked chicken
1/2 pint skimmed milk
1 tbsp cornflour
1 egg (beaten)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Place the milk in a saucepan and add the flour, salt and pepper and whisk together well. Place over a medium heat and bring to the boil whisking all the time until the sauce has thickened. Leave to cool.
When cooled add the chicken and then divide between four individual pie dishes .
Weigh the pastry and divide into four pieces then roll out. Wet the edge of the pie dishes with a little water and place each rolled out piece of pastry over each dish.
Brush with the beaten egg then bake in a pre heated oven gas 6/200/400 for 20-30 minutes until the tops are browned and golden.
