Recipe Monday!

I'm all about chicken pies these days.
I find them so easy to make and so tasty.
Love doing them with some sliced potatoes on top instead of puff pastry or mashed potatoes.

Chicken Pie

Give them all their own little pie.

Serves a family of 4

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, finely shopped
4 ounces bacon, cubed
2 chicken breasts, trimmed and chopped
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup chicken stock
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 large potatoes, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons butter

Preheat oven to 350˚F.
Heat the oil in a medium-size saucepan.
Fry onion and bacon until the onion turns soft.
Add the chicken and cook until the chicken has color on all sides.
Add cream and stock and cook for 2 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper.
Transfer mixture into 4 ovenproof dishes and top with sliced potatoes.
Brush with melted butter.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden and bubbly.

Then, make a large solid color pom-pom.
Using a large needle, thread the pom-poms onto the wool string.
