  • Total Time: 1 hour
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups of diced chicken or rabbit (or your meat of choice)
  • 1 cup of diced carrots
  • 1 cup of peas
  • 1 cup of potatoes, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon of flour
  • 2 cups of chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 teaspoon of thyme
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • ½ teaspoon of pepper
  • 2 pre-made pie crusts (or homemade if preferred)
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a large pot, heat oil, then sauté diced chicken or rabbit, chopped onion, carrots, and garlic until meat is browned and vegetables are tender.
  2. Make the sauce: Sprinkle flour over the mixture, gradually add broth while stirring to avoid lumps. Add potatoes, peas, thyme, salt, and pepper; simmer until thickened.
  3. Prepare the crust: Roll out the pie crust and line the bottom of a pie dish. Pour the filling in, topping with another crust, crimp edges, and create slits for steam.
  4. Bake to perfection: Brush the top with beaten egg and bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown.
