I used homemade pastry (recipe at the end) but you can use store-bought, ready to use pie crust also. You will find it in frozen section you can use roll-out puff pastry (short crust pastry or ready to fill pies).
Choose whatever is easily available.
I use a 13x7 oven proof glass dish for the pie I make and it is good enough for 4-6 people.
Ingredients:
2 sheets thawed puff pastry.Minced Chicken
Carrots, Bell peppers, Mushrooms, Corn, Onions.
1 beaten egg
Butter.
Cheese optional.
How To Make:
Pre-heat oven to 200 degrees C.
Grease the dish you will use with butter.
Meanwhile cook your chicken with salt, pepper, veggies and a splash of vinegar and soy-sauce. Do not over-dry the chicken.
Next line pie plate with one sheet of pastry, fill with chicken mix and top with another pastry.
Press around edges to seal. Also make 6-8 slits with knife, to let steam escape.
Brush with egg and bake for 30 minutes (less or more according to your oven and pastry baking instructions). Until the pie is brown on top.
Serve immeediately with mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables.
A good shortcrust pastry recipe is from BBC-food, if you are into baking and want to bake your own homemade pie crust, try this Shortcrust Pastry Recipe and increase ingredients as needed.
