When you hear the word pie, toast probably isn’t the next word that comes to mind. Imagining what a combination these two things might add up to, you also might not immediately think of the word tasty either. But just wait until you try this mouthwatering recipe! Along with chicken breast, tender vegetables, and assorted cheeses, the toast will reveal its true potential!
Chicken Sandwich Pie
Equipment
- Springform pan
- Bear Claws
Ingredients
- 2 cooked chicken breasts
- 3 oz sweet corn
- 3 oz cooked peas
- salt & pepper to taste
- 21 slices of bread
- 5 oz ketchup
- 7 oz cream cheese
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil to grease the pan
- 3 oz shredded mozzarella to garnish
- 3 oz grated parmesan to garnish
Instructions
- Shred the two chicken breasts on a chopping board using bear claws. Put the shredded chicken in a large bowl, add the sweet corn, peas, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix everything thoroughly.
- Grease a 9-inch springform pan with vegetable oil. Cut the crusts off all the slices of bread. Arrange 7 slices around the edge of the pan. Cut equal-sided triangles from the rest of the slices to line the bottom of the pan. Use the triangular offcuts to make more triangles for the second layer of bread.
- Spread half of the ketchup evenly over the bread on the bottom of the pan. Then spread a layer of cream cheese on top, using a little less than half of the total amount. Spread half of the chicken mix on top of the cheese.
- Repeat the steps, putting down another layer of bread, then ketchup, cream cheese, and chicken mixture. Keep about 7 tbsp of cream cheese for later. Sprinkle the mozzarella and parmesan on top as a garnish. Dab some cream cheese on the pie, one for each slice of bread. Fold each slice carefully inwards.
- Bake the pie for 15 minutes at 350°F. Serve warm.
