Cheesy Chicken and Leek Phyllo Pie image

In our house, chicken potpie is a year-round staple. For a springtime feel, we use leeks and mushrooms and a lighter phyllo dough crust. If you don't have gruyere, try Parmesan. -Andrea Stewart, Toronto, Ontario

Yield 6 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 medium leeks (white portion only), thinly sliced
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup chicken stock
1 can (5 ounces) evaporated milk

Stir in flour until blended; gradually stir in stock and milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir 3-4 minutes or until thickened. Stir in chicken, 3/4 cup cheese, thyme, salt and pepper., Brush a 9-in. pie plate with some of the remaining oil. Place one sheet of phyllo dough into prepared pie plate, allowing ends to extend over edges of dish; brush with oil.

Layer with seven additional phyllo sheets, brushing each layer with oil and rotating sheets to cover the pie plate.
