CREAMY CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM PIES
The trick to making sure that the bottoms of your pies are crispy and cooked through is pre-heating the sheet pan first. Because the filling is pre-cooked, the oven is set to a high temperature to speed up the cooking time.

Steps:
- For the pies: Place a large sheet pan on a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook, tossing the mushrooms occasionally, until they soften and turn golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the chicken, mustard and chives. Add the cream cheese and stir until the cheese is melted. Remove from the heat.
- Lightly flour a work surface and roll the pastry into an 11-inch square. Cut the pastry in half. Divide the chicken and mushroom mixture in half and place each half on one end of each rectangle of pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch border on all sides.
- Brush the border with the egg and fold over the other half of the puff pastry. Use a fork to crimp and seal the edges. Cut slits in the tops of the pies to vent. Brush the tops of the pies lightly with the egg. Transfer the pies to the hot baking sheet and bake until deep golden brown, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, for the salad: Whisk together the lemon juice, oil and mustard in a large bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Fold in the thinly sliced onions and toss occasionally to soften, 5 to 10 minutes.
- When ready to serve, toss the lettuce and chives into the dressing.

LYNSEY'S CHUNKY CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM PIE
I love this recipe, it is easy and fairly quick to make, I just made it up one day. It uses simple, everyday ingredients yet could be served at a fairly formal occasion. Best thing about it is that you can make it the day before, keep it in the fridge put it in the oven just before your guests/family arrive, then the air will be filled with an amazing, savoury smell!

Steps:
- First heat the oil in a frying pan.
- Add the chicken, cut into bite size but still chunky, pieces.
- Stir-fry it until it is white all over, then add the mushrooms and continue to stir-fry until the chicken is golden in places and the mushrooms cooked.
- Add the garlic, stir for 1 minute then turn out the heat.
- In a separate, preferably nonstick, saucepan, melt the butter and stir in the flour.
- Continue to stir for 3 minutes over a fairly low heat.
- Mix together the stock and milk.
- Pour this gradually onto the flour, whisking all the time to avoid lumps.
- Allow to cook over a low heat for around 5 minutes, whisking frequently.
- Add the parsley, season with salt and nutmeg.
- If you find the sauce is too thick, gradually whisk in a little extra stock or milk.
- It should just coat the back of a spoon.
- Now add this to the pan with the chicken and mushrooms, mix and then pour into a pie dish.
- Top with the rolled out pastry- I like to decorate with mushroom shapes cut out of pastry scraps, and brush with beaten egg.
- Now bake for 20-25 minutes in a hot oven, about 200°C until golden brown and smelling delicious!
- I like to serve this with steamed broccoli and buttered jersey new potatoes.

Steps:
- Place the Flour, Salt and Butter in the bowl of your food processor. Blend until it resemble thin sand or crumbs. Add the cold water and pulse until the dough starts to come together. (see note 1 to do without a food processor)
- Transfer onto a lightly floured surface and assemble the dough in a ball. Cover with wrap and gently press on the dough to flatten it (this will help the pastry to chill more uniformly). Place in the fridge to chill.
- Cut the Chicken Thighs in small pieces.Pour the Olive Oil in a large deep pan. Add the cut chicken thighs with the salt and garlic powder (or crushed garlic). Cook over medium heat. When the chicken pieces start to turn white, cover with the chicken stock and leave to simmer for 5 minutes.
- In the meantime, peal and slice the small white mushrooms then add them to the pan.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, cornstarch and curry powder. Pour over the chicken and mushrooms with the dried thyme flakes. Whisk well and leave to simmer on medium heat for 10 to 15 minutes.
- When the filling starts to thicken, taste and adjust the salt and spices if required. Add the black pepper powder, stir then remove from the heat and leave to cool down for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Preheat the oven on 350°F.
- Take the shortcrust pastry out of the fridge. Cut it in two pieces, one about 2/3 of the dough and the other about 1/3 of the dough.Lightly flour your work surface and both sides of the dough. Using a rolling pin, roll into a large thin circle. Place in a deep pie pan.
- Optional: sprinkle the thin semolina on the bottom of the pastry dough. This will help to absorb the juices of the filling and avoid for the bottom of the pie to be soaked.
- Pour the Chicken and Mushroom Filling over the Pastry in the pie pan.
- Roll the second piece of pastry dough and place over the pie filling. Gently fold the first pastry dough over the edges of the pastry lid to seal the pie. Use any leftover pastry to decorate your pie if desired. With a sharp knife, cut a small cross in the middle of the pastry to allow for any steam to come out of the pie while it bakes.
- Whisk the Egg and brush it over the pie pastry.Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the pastry is golden-brown.Leave to cool down for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM PIE
This is a great recipe to use up leftover chicken. It's very cheap to make.I found this in a magazine but I have added my bits and pieces to it. You can change the contents of the pie to what ever you have in your fridge, I sometimes use cauliflower or broccoli and alter the cooking time by a bit. you can also use other things in the mash like carrot or cheese, you would just have to boil the carrot with the potatoes from the start.

CHEAT'S CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM PIE
I desperately wanted a chicken and shroom pie but couldn't be bothered to find a nice recipe or to wait for one to bake in the oven so I made this up as I went along - it was yummy! The amounts are therefore approximate and I would imagine lots of subsititutes/omissions/additions would be possible. We had it with mashed home-grown potatoes, yummy! A quick note about the white sauce, use whichever recipe/ready-made version you normally use but make it slightly thicker than single cream (this is runnier than a normal bechemal sauce) by using slightly less milk and adding chicken stock.
