ONE PAN CHICKEN HAM + LEEK PIE 🥧

I feel like everyone needs a one pan pie recipe and this is THE best one pan pie. I’ve been making this for years and it will never not amaze me how easy but amazing it is. I’ve made a few healthier swaps, but you genuinely can’t tell and packed it with leeks so it’s nourishing too.

Ingredients:
4 chicken thighs
2 gammon steaks
500ml chicken stock
1/4 cup flour
2 leeks
1/2 onion
3 cloves garlic
2tbsp light crème fraiche
1tsp wholegrain mustard (optional)
Salt and pepper
1 roll puff pastry
1 egg (beaten)
Dried thyme
Extra virgin olive oil

Method:
Fry off the chicken and gammon until cooked/browned and remove from the pan.

Add leek, onion and garlic to the pan and cook until softened. Season with salt, pepper and dried thyme and cook for a further few minutes. Then add the flour and cook out for 2 more mins.

Add the chicken stock and reduce for a few minutes, then add crème fraiche and reduce until the mixture is thick and creamy.

Cut the puff pastry into shapes and layer over the pie then brush with egg wash. Bake at 180 for 18-20 mins. Serve with creamy mash and enjoy! ♥️

3 medium potatoes (sliced)
1 tin chopped toms
440ml water

1tsp garlic puree or 2 cloves garlic
2tbsp tomato puree
50g reduced fat grated cheese
Salt and pepper

Method:
Thinly slice potato then drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Bake for 20 minutes at 180.

Meanwhile, fry off the onion and carrot for a few minutes before adding the garlic puree, cook for 2-3 minutes.

Add the beef mince along with the tomato puree and cook for a further few minutes.

Then add the tinned toms, water and beef stock pot and simmer for 10 minutes.
