Ingredients
  • Pastry equivalent to 3 single crust pie shells.
  • 2 boneless chicken breasts - approx. 350 gms/3/4 lb - cut into small pieces ( about 1/4" pieces)
  • 1 med carrot - peeled & cut into small dice ( about 1/4" pieces)
  • 2 medium potatoes - peeled & cut into same small dice
  • 2 cloves garlic - minced
  • 1/2 large onion - cut into small dice
  • approx 225 ml condensed chicken broth
  • salt & pepper to taste - see note on pepper
  • 1 Tblspn corn starch + water
  • .
  • NOTE:- I always use white pepper. I like the flavor much better than black pepper

Directions
  1. In saucepan place chicken, garlic, onion, carrot & chicken broth
  2. Bring to boil & then turn down heat & simmer until chicken & veges are cooked & the liquid is reduced.
  3. Check it often because you are not using much liquid & you don't want it to burn.
  4. Mix corn starch in water to make a thin paste & stir enough into chicken mixture to slightly thicken & liquid is no longer runny
  5. Set aside to cool
  6. Prepare pastry & divide into 3 pieces
  7. Roll out pastry until about 1/8" thick (about the same as you would for a pie crust)
  8. Cut into rounds with cutter - see note
  9. Place approx. 1 Tblspn filling on one side of each pastry round.
  10. Wet edges & fold pastry over filling & press to seal
  11. Roll edges with fingers or press with fork to seal really well
  12. Place on baking sheets
  13. Poke holes in top of each with fork & brush with milk
  14. Bake at 400* for 25 - 28 mins until lightly golden
  15. .
  16. NOTE:- These can be made any size. For this recipe I used one of my Tuppeware lids - 4 3/4" across.
  17. If you're a Tupperware nut like me you will probably recognize the lid I used.

Looks good, and easy, too.

Bet it would also be good with puff pastry crust.


These are beautiful Brianna
My mouth is watering five forks and a smile :)


PS great step by steps too and a flag as beautiful also.


I agree with Hungryjohn, I'd love to try these with the puff pastry. And I agree with Trigger, these look beautiful and sound mouthwatering! Great job, girl! High 5 and a beauty flag from me!


Wonderfully delicious!


Thanks to all of you. One of the things I like about them is that I freeze a batch of them after they've baked & cooled,then when I need something for my lunch for work, I just throw a couple in a container in my lunch bag & by lunch time they are thawed & ready to eat cold or warmed in the microwave. They are great with a ground beef filling too.
