    Check to see if the carrots are cooked, if not cook a little more.

  6. Add in the cooked chicken and stir everything to combine, using your spatula, you can do this in a large bowl but it should all fit in your TMX bowl, you need not use the TM to mix it all. Spoon the filling into your pastry case, cover with pastry, brush over with beaten egg and bake for 20-30 minutes. Or until heated through and the pastry is golden.

    FAMILY FAVOURITE!!!
    Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

    Hubby is so against chicken pies (will only eat beef) but he LOVES this one!

    When I first made it I accidentally left out the water & I loved the consistency so I leave it out on purpose now. We prefer a thicker pie so it's perfect for us!!!!

    MUST TRY!!!

    Thank you for this recipe! It tastes wonderful. We used a shredded bbq chicken and we didn't have any Thermo Chicken Stock so just used 500ml of Campbell's chicken stock. Our household also isn't a fan of mushrooms so subsitiuted for a zuchinni and also added in some frozen peas at the end. But it seems you could add in any sort of veggies. Turned out perfectly and enough for a couple of meals. Thanks!
