How To Make Chicken & Leek Filo Pie
A delicious and savory pie filled with tender chicken and leeks, encased in flaky filo pastry.
Serves:
Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
- 2 leeks, washed and thinly sliced
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 6 sheets of filo pastry
- 2 tbsp melted butter
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic, and cook until softened.
-
Add the sliced leeks and cook for another 5 minutes, until they start to soften.
-
Add the shredded chicken, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2 minutes.
-
Remove the pan from heat and set aside.
-
Take one sheet of filo pastry and brush it with melted butter. Lay another sheet on top and brush with butter again.
-
Repeat this process until you have used all the filo sheets.
-
Spoon the chicken and leek mixture onto one end of the filo pastry. Roll the pastry tightly to form a log shape, tucking in the edges as you go.
-
Place the filo log onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, seam side down.
-
Brush the top of the filo log with melted butter.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the filo is golden brown and crispy.
-
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
