Spicy Cajun Chicken Pot Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a deep dish pie pan with cooking spray. Arrange one pie crust on the bottom of the pan.
• Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the the chicken breast and season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 7 minutes. Add the portobello mushrooms; cook and stir until the mushrooms are tender. Stir in the cream of chicken and cream of mushroom soups, chicken broth, cream cheese, and tomatoes. Stir in more chicken broth if the mixture becomes too thick. Stir in the mixed vegetables and red pepper flakes.
• Pour chicken mixture into the prepared pan, reserving any leftover filling. Place the top crust on top, crimping the edges of the crusts to seal. Poke 4 to 5 holes in the top crust. Cover loosely with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 45 minutes. Serve with the leftover chicken mixture.

Steps:

• Melt the butter over medium heat, sprinkle flour in the pan when the butter starts to bubble. Stir constantly until the mixture starts to turn a dark brown.(about 5 minutes) Quickly add the onions, peppers, celery and garlic, mix well. Remove from the heat for a minute; then turn the heat to low and place back on the heat.
• Continue to cook and stir for about 5 minutes. Gradually add the chicken stock, followed by the tomato paste, parsley, thyme, bay leaves, cayenne and Tabasco. Simmer for 30 minutes. Add the chicken and sausage, cook for another hour (mixture will be very thick). Fold in the shrimp and put into a large baking dish.
• Cover with the puff pastry. Bake in a 400 degree farenheit oven for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large, shallow saucepan or deep frying pan over a medium heat, then add the chicken, season lightly and fry for 6-8 mins, stirring occasionally until just golden all over - no need to worry about it being cooked through at this stage.
• Stir in the garlic and cook for 2 mins more, then scatter over the Cajun-style seasoning and stir so the chicken pieces are evenly coated. Tip in the tomatoes, a quarter of a can of water and the stock cube. Stir, then bring to a simmer and cook for 5 mins.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and cook the pasta for a minute less than pack instructions. Stir the cream into the chicken and continue to simmer gently. When the pasta is cooked, drain well and stir into chicken mixture. Finish cooking the pasta in the sauce over a low heat for 2 mins, then stir in the parmesan and lemon juice, and cook for 1 min more. Serve the pasta straight from the pan, or tip into a large serving bowl. Scatter with parsley, if you like, and extra parmesan.
