Chicken Mushroom and Bacon Pie

This delicious recipe for Chicken, Mushroom and Bacon Pie is an absolute winner. The filling is a classic combination of chicken, bacon and mushrooms, all encapsulated in buttery puff pastry. The mix is simple and easy to whip up, so all that’s left to do is cover with pastry and leave to bubble away in the oven. They’re lovely served with a side of mash and steamed greens, or just enjoy as is.

Ingredients (serves 4 | makes 4 pies)

3 rashers streaky bacon, roughly diced
125g chestnut mushrooms, sliced
250 g chicken thigh fillets, cut into 2.5cm chunks
25g plan flour
1/2 tsp dried thyme
300 millilitres hot chicken stock
1 tablespoon marsala
4 Frozen ready-rolled puff pastry sheet, thawed

Method

Preheat oven to 220C/gas mark 7/425F. Heat a deep-set frying pan over a medium heat, add oil and fry bacon strips until they start to crisp, then add mushrooms and cook stirring until the mushrooms soften. Remove bacon and mushrooms from pan and set aside.
oss chicken in flour and thyme, then use same pan as before to cook the chicken, frying lightly to seal edges. Add bacon and mushrooms back into the pan and cook until chicken begins to colour.
Pour in the hot stock and Marsala, stirring to form a sauce and leave to simmer for about 5 minutes. Take two 300ml/1¼ cup pie pots and line the tops with a 1cm-wide strip of pastry, to cover the rim. Divide chicken filling between the two pie pots and then cover with pastry, pressing into the rim pastry with a fork to seal it together. Cook the pies for about 20 minutes turning them around halfway through cooking. When they’re golden and puffy on top, they’re done

We think this recipe for Chicken Mushroom and Bacon Pie sounds nice and easy ... but super delicious! Anything you'd add?

I wouldn’t add anything but I would remove the mushrooms as no one likes them.

Not really sure where they sell chestnut Mushrooms around my area so will have to substitute with whatever one I can get.
This looks and sounds so amazing, I’ll definitely be cooking it for dinner once I’ve done my grocery shopping.

Sounds divine- I’d replace bacon with something vegetarian though.

My mouth is watering just looking at that pie. I love pies but I’m trying to cut back on just having them during winter. Hubby makes a delicious chicken, mushroom and corn pie so I’ll pass on this recipe so he can make this one. He loves to cook so I leave him to it.
