Chicken Mushroom Asparagus Pie Recipes

Steps:

• If you are using dried mushrooms, heat the stock and soak them for 10 mins, then remove them, strain the liquid and set it aside. If you're using fresh mushrooms, clean them thoroughly before using. Set a couple of the nicest-looking morels aside to decorate the top of the pie, and halve the rest.
• Heat half the butter in a skillet and fry the halved morels for 3-4 mins or until wilted. Scoop them onto a plate and set aside. Heat the remaining butter and gently cook the shallots in the pan with the thyme and bay. Once softened, stir in the flour and cook for 1 min or until you have a sandy paste.
• Pour in the sherry and sizzle, then carefully stir in the strained soaking liquid (or 200ml chicken stock if you've used fresh morels), followed by the crème fraîche. Season well and bring the sauce to a gentle simmer. Add the chicken and poach in the sauce for 10 mins or until the chicken is just cooked through. Remove the bay, stir through the asparagus, tarragon and fried morels, then remove from the heat.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 8. The pastry needs to sit on top of the ingredients, so if your pan is too deep, use a pie dish instead. Roll out the pastry on a floured surface to the thickness of a £1 coin, then cut the pastry to fit the pan or dish, and drape it over the pie mixture using a rolling pin to help you. Liberally brush with egg, season the pastry with flaky sea salt, and pop your reserved morels on the top. Bake for 20 mins or until the pastry has puffed and is a deep golden brown. Leave tor rest for 5 mins before serving straight from the pan.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350. Prepare filling. Heat 1 tbsp butter and 1 tbsp canola oil in a large skillet over medium. When the butter is melted add mushrooms, onions, carrots and asparagus. Depending how large your skillet is you may need to do 2 batches. Cook veggies until nearly tender, then remove from heat and set aside. Add diced chicken to the veggies, stirring gently to combine.
• 2. Prepare crust. In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Use a pastry blender to cut in the butter until large crumbs form. Set aside. In a small bowl, beat together the egg, water, vinegar and molasses. Add liquid to flour mixture, stirring just until dough forms. It may be necessary to use your hands to make a smooth dough. Try not to handle it too much or it becomes tough. Divide the dough into two portions. Roll each into a circle between waxed paper. Use one to line a round casserole dish, then bake about 10 minutes. Set the other circle of crust aside for now.
• 3. Prepare sauce. In a small pot, combine water, mushroom bouillon and pepper. Heat to nearly boiling. In a small bowl or glass Pyrex style measuring cup combine flour with enough milk to equal about 1 cup total. Stir thoroughly until smooth. Slowly pour into hot bouillon, stirring constantly. Add parmesan. Cook and stir until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
• 4. Build the pot pie. Transfer the chicken and veggie mixture to the prepared crust. Pour over about 1 cup of the sauce. Top with remaining circle of crust, tucking under edges like for pie. Put at least one slit in the top of the crust to vent. It's best to bake it on top of a cookie sheet just in case it drips, it's a bit of guesswork how much sauce to add for which casserole dish you're using.
• 5. Bake at 350 for about an hour, until crust is golden. Let cool a few minutes before serving - the crust will become more crisp as it begins to cool. Slice, serve and enjoy!

Steps:

• Sauté the carrots, onions and mushrooms in the butter, cook for 5 minutes.
• Stir in the flour and gradually add the milk stirring until the sauce thickens, boils and is smooth.
• Add the chicken, asparagus, seasoning and cream to the sauce.
• Pour the mixture into a 1¼-quart pie dish.
• Roll the pastry to the same size as the dish, dampen the rim and cover with the pastry.
• Brush with egg wash.
• Bake at 400°F for 25 minutes until the pastry is golden brown.

Steps:

• Melt the butter with the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high; stir the parsley, basil, oregano, garlic, salt, lemon juice, and wine into the butter mixture. Add the chicken; cook and stir until the chicken is browned, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is no longer pink inside, about 10 more minutes.
• Add the asparagus; cook and stir until the asparagus is bright green and just starting to become tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms and cook an additional 3 minutes to let the mushrooms release their juice. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 200°C.
• Heat oil in pan over medium heat.
• Brown chicken, add mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes.
• Add combined evaporated milk, cornflour, mustard, and stock powder.
• Bring to the boil, simmer covered for 6 minutes, stirring twice.
• Remove from heat, stir in asparagus.
• Spoon mixture into 6 individual oven proof dishes.
• Dive the pastry sheet into 6 squares and top dishes with pastry.
• Brush with a little egg yolk and slit the pastry.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden.

Steps:

• Cook rice in water as directed on package.
• Meanwhile, in wok or 10-inch skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add chicken strips; stir-fry 5 to 6 minutes or until no longer pink in center. Remove chicken from wok; place on plate.
• Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to wok. Add asparagus and onion; stir-fry 3 minutes. Add mushrooms; stir-fry 3 minutes longer. Add water; cover and steam 2 to 3 minutes or until asparagus is tender.
• Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix stir-fry sauce and oyster sauce. Add sauce mixture and return chicken to wok; stir-fry about 1 minute longer or until hot.
