Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a deep pie dish.

  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.

  3. In the same skillet, add the sliced leek and minced garlic. Sauté until the leek is softened, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  5. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, then season with dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and allow it to cook for 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

  6. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to combine all the ingredients. Remove the skillet from the heat.

  7. Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a floured surface to fit the size of your pie dish, with a little overhang to cover the edges. Carefully transfer the pastry to the top of the pie filling.

  8. Crimp the edges of the pastry around the dish to seal it and make a few small slits in the pastry to allow steam to escape during baking.

  9. Brush the pastry with the beaten egg to give it a golden color when baked.

  10. Place the pie on a baking sheet (to catch any spills) and bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.

  11. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Slice and enjoy.
