Do you love a pie, but hate rolling out pastry on a weeknight? Us too! Thatās why we came up with this baked beauty. Thereās tender chicken and a bounty of vegetables surrounded by a rich and creamy sauce but the best bit is the flaky topping, made by scrunching up sheets of filo pastry. Itās easy as pie!
2 clove
garlic
1 packet
chicken breast
1 bag
soffritto mix
1 packet
diced bacon
(May be present: Soy, Milk.)
1 packet
thickened cream
(Contains: Milk)
1 bag
baby spinach leaves
5
filo pastry
(Contains: Gluten, Wheat)
1 bag
spinach & rocket mix
olive oil
¼ cup
water
30 g
butter
(Contains: Milk)
1 sachet
herb & mushroom seasoning
(Contains: Gluten, Soy, Wheat)
1 drizzle
vinegar (balsamic or white wine)

⢠Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. ⢠Finely chop garlic. ⢠Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks.

⢠In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. ⢠When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Season pepper then transfer to a baking dish.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.

⢠Return frying pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. ⢠Cook soffrito mix and diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 4-6 minutes.

⢠Reduce heat to medium, then add herb & mushroom seasoning and garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. ⢠Stir in thickened cream and the water. Simmer until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. ⢠Remove from heat, then stir through baby spinach leaves until wilted. Season to taste.

⢠Transfer filling to the baking dish with the chicken. Stir to combine. ⢠To a small heatproof bowl, add the butter and microwave in 10 second bursts until melted. ⢠Lightly scrunch each sheet of filo pastry and place on top of the chicken mixture to completely cover. ⢠Gently brush melted butter over to coat. Bake pie until golden, 15-20 minutes.

⢠In a medium bowl, combine spinach & rocket mix, a drizzle of olive oil and the vinegar. Season to taste. ⢠Divide creamy chicken & bacon pot pie between plates. Serve with salad. Enjoy!
