Curry Chicken Pot Pies Recipes

CURRIED CHICKEN POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F.
• Season chicken breasts with Garam Masala and salt.
• Fry in a hot pan for 3-4 minutes per side. I prefer to under-cook them just slightly as they will continue cooking during baking.
• Remove the chicken breasts from the pan and set aside to rest.
• In the same pan, add a splash of oil and cook the onion, celery and carrot until soft and lightly golden.
• Add the garlic and spices and cook for 1 minute.
• Sprinkle in the flour, stir to coat the vegetables then pour in the stock and cream.
• Bring to a simmer and allow to cook until thickened.
• Cube the chicken and stir into the sauce with the lemon juice then season to taste.
• Top the pie with thawed puff pastry.
• Brush with beaten egg then place in the oven.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes until the pastry is golden and puffed.
• Remove from the oven and serve.

CURRIED CHICKEN POTPIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: In a food processor, pulse together flour, sugar, and salt. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal, with a few pea-size pieces of butter remaining. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons ice water. Pulse until dough is crumbly but holds together when squeezed (if necessary, add up to 2 tablespoons ice water); do not overmix. Form dough into a disk, wrap tightly in plastic, and refrigerate until firm, 1 hour or overnight (or freeze, up to 1 month).
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Make the filling: In a large pot, melt butter over medium-high. Add onion and cauliflower and cook until softened, 8 minutes. Add garlic and curry powder and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add flour and stir to coat vegetables. Slowly add broth, whisking constantly until sauce is smooth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in green beans. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in chicken. Pour filling into a 2-quart baking dish.
• On a floured work surface, roll out dough to 1/8-inch thickness. Place dough over dish and fold overhang inward while pinching to crimp edge. Cut vents in dough. Place dish on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbling around edge, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes before serving.

CURRIED CHICKEN PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Pour 1 tbsp oil into a flameproof casserole dish. Addthe chicken, season and fry for 4-5 mins on a medium heat, turning, until lightly browned. Remove with tongs and set aside.
• Pour another ½ tbsp oil into the casserole dish and add the spring onions. Fry gently for a couple of mins, then stir in the garlic, ginger and curry powder. Cook for 1 min, then tip the chicken back into the pan, along with the broccoli, soy sauce, coconut milk, chicken stock and cornflour mixture. Bring to the boil, then stir in the kale. Once the kale has wilted, take the dish off the heat.
• Mix the remaining oil with the splash of coconut milk. Unravel the pastry. Brush each sheet lightly with the oil mixture, then scrunch up and sit on top of the pie mixture. Scatter over the nigella seeds, then cook in the oven for 12 mins, or until the pastry is a deep golden brown. Leave to stand for a couple of mins before serving.

CURRY CHICKEN POT PIE

Steps:

• In small pan, saute onions with the butter, just until soft. Set aside.
• In seperate saucepan or pot, heat vegetables and chicken broth until boiling.
• Lower heat and add milk.
• In a small cup, mix a little bit of cold water and the flour until its dissolved (thus eliminating the lumps that may occur if you just dump the flour in the hot vegetables and broth) and mix with the heated broth.
• Add onions, curry, parsley, salt, pepper and chicken to the broth and let simmer until it thickens. Add more flour if needed.
• Once the sauce thickens to your liking, pour into pie pan and top with pre-made pie crust.
• Cut slits in top (and brush with butter if you want).
• Bake at 400 degrees until crust is nice and golden.
