Chicken pie?

Mushrooms and/or leeks is nice.

You can use the gravy fron the sunday lunch.

Or make a white sauce and add mushrooms and onions to the chicken.

Thanks guys. I'm going to go for the gravy and mushroom option this time.

I think I might need some ideas for the leftover puff pastry.

If anyone wants to make a chicken pie but they havn't got any left over chicken those chicken breasts from Iceland are ideal. Defrost them first and then cook them in boiling water before putting in a pie.

Thanks to everyone for the chicken pie ideas :T , I plan to make one too! i like the idea of the campbells soup.I have to admit i use frozen puff pastry as well ( but it was BOGOF at Morrisons! )

I buy the ready made non frozen packs of pastry. If you make a pie with only pastry on top, it will do 6 small / 3 large pies. So I chop the pastry into 3 portions when I get it, and freeze 2 of them for future use. Makes it about 25p per pie, which feeds 2 people plus a lunch portion the next day.

I always make the pastry in my food processor - turns out great each time.

For chicken pie I use, one onion thin sliced and fried, add some frozen peas, sweetcorn (sometimes use the baby corn cobs) I bung in other veg too if it needs using up, add the shredded chicken, a dash of white wine, some chicken stock and some cornflour to thicken. Makes a lovely chicken/wine gravy....yummmmmy.

Had a pie tonight with chicken, one leek, salt and pepper and a small splash of milk. Very tasty:)
cup-a soups are a useful standby for sauces if you use half the stated quantity of water. Also I would recommend a low salt variety - I heard one brand had nearly the whole daily recommended intake of salt in one cup.
Made a separate pie for dd cos shes fussy, with sausage, egg and cheese.
