Instructions
This chicken bacon and mushroom pie is easy to make and is sure to be a hit at any dinner table. To begin, preheat your oven to 400 degrees and prepare a 9-inch pie dish.
Next, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and garlic, and cook until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant. Add the diced chicken, bacon, and mushrooms, and cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 8 minutes. Stir in the thyme, salt, and pepper. Add the flour and stir until combined. Add the chicken broth and cream, and simmer until the sauce has thickened, about 8 minutes.
Remove from the heat and stir in the butter, parsley, and any other desired seasonings. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie dish. Cut the puff pastry into a circle and place it over the top of the pie. Cut a few slits in the pastry to allow steam to escape. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!
