Heinz Creamy Chicken Pie

Sick Days

The best ways to recover from sick days involve drinking lots of fluids and eating lots of chicken.  I decided I would make this simple chicken pie to assist in my speedy recovery from a sore throat.  It is packed full of protein and much more fulfilling than Heinz tinned chicken soup.  The recipe was adapted from the back of a soup can. 


Ingredients:

4 washed and prepared diced chicken breasts, 2tbsps olive oil, 2 leeks (washed and chopped), 250g button mushrooms (Washed and chopped), 1 can of Heinz cream of chicken soup, black pepper, 4 - 5 sheets of filo pastry, egg whites from one egg.

Method:

1. Brown chicken in oil.
2. Add the leeks and the mushrooms in the pan and cook until soft.
3. Pour in the soup and season with black pepper. Pre heat the oven to 180 degrees C / Gas mark 5
4. Pour in an oven proof dish and cover with filo pastry sheets, brushing with egg whites per layer.
5. Cover the chicken with the sheets.
6. Bake for 25 minutes until the pastry is golden and crisp.



* Serve with any type of hot sauce to help with a sore throat.
