Chicken Pie

This is my all-time favourite recipe. The pie is so full of flavour! I love preparing this meal almost as much as I love eating it. It may look like there are a lot of steps, but don’t let that intimidate you as they are all very simple.

Our creamy chicken pie goes so well with Mashed Potatoes.
