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.

I made this recipe for a family event and they gobbled it up! Everyone could not believe how easy it was to make when I told them about it.

Lately, I too have been making pot pies, chicken in particular. Finally came up with a simple, quick version. So good when the temps in So Cal drop into the 50's at night! Lol! Yes, we are a delicate bunch! I'm going to have to try your recipe with the potatoes on top. Looks like a nice change! Really well done photo too.
