Burgundy Chicken Pie

Directions

1. In a large skillet, saute onions in oil over medium heat until softened. Add the chicken, and cook until browned on all sides. Add the mushrooms, and cook until soft . Stir in the thyme and flour, and then add the wine. Dissolve the chicken bouillon in water, and stir into the chicken and vegetables. Simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, then season to taste. Transfer mixture into a deep pie dish, or a 2 quart baking dish, and set aside. Keep any excess sauce separately for gravy.
2. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
3. Roll out the puff pastry. Cut a 1/2 inch (1 cm) strip. Brush the rim of the pie plate with water, arrange the pastry strip around the top edge of the pie dish, and press the pastry in position. Brush the pastry edge with water. Roll out remaining pastry, and use to cover the filling. Seal the edges well; trim and crimp the edge. Brush pastry with beaten egg, and make a small hole in the center of the top. Use the pastry trimmings to make leaves; arrange on top of the pie. Brush pastry leaves with egg.
4. Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until crisp and golden.

"I have a hard time getting my husband to eat vegetables, but he loved this pie even with all the mushrooms! We will cook this every month! My oven must run hot, but I would only cook it for 30 mins o..." See morer so, just long enough to brown the crust since everything else is already cooked. I also used 4 oz of mushrooms instead of 6. It was plenty."

"I tried this because it sounded good, and I had leftover burgundy wine from a beef burgundy recipe I had made over the weekend. Anyway.... I did not like this at all...." See more"

"This was very tasty however there was too much liquid. Next time I will just add a little bit of liquid at a time so I can judge it better. I added a diced carrot to add some more nutritional value. H..." See moreow strong the flavour is will depend on what wine you use."
