Chicken & Bacon pot pie













 Secret Recipe Club
 
Really I love this, you know other amazing bloggers and cookers and new recipes and always is a challenge cook or bake new recipes.

My assignment was Annie'Noms and I love her blog and recipes.
Was difficult choose but finally I wanna make this Chicken &Bacon pot pie and was delicious!

Her recipe is for two but I made to four servings.

Ingredients
(4 servings )

For the pastry

1 cup of flour
1/2 cup of butter
30 ml water
pinch of salt
1 egg to brush dough

For the filling:
1 tablespoon of oil
1 teaspoon of butter
1  1/2 chicken breast sliced into small chunks
1 onion sliced thinly
3 rashers of bacon, diced
1/2 red pepper in slices
2 tablespoon chicken  broth  or chicken gravy granules
3 tablespoon single cream
water added to the consistency you want your gravy
salt and pepper to taste

Method

Make the pastry as it needs time to rest. Put the flour, salt and butter into a small bowl and rub together with your figers until
it resembles breadcrumbs.
Add the water in a teaspoon at a time and mix with a wooden spoon until a dough forms.

Wrap it in cling film and place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
When you are ready to make the filling,get the pastry out to rest.

Filling

 To make the filling, preheat the oven to 180 degrees C .
 Heat the oil and butter in a large saucepan or wok.
Place the onion and bacon in the saucepan and place the lid on so that the onion and bacon softens.
Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

 Add  the chicken and and red pepper and  stir, replace the lid and leave for 5 minutes to colour the chicken.
Add the  chicken broth of chicken gravy granules and as much water as you require to make the consistency of gravy you like.
Coat everything then stir in the cream. Add salt and pepper to taste.
 Bring to the boil and then leave to simmer for 10 minutes to thicken and cook through.

Once the chicken is cooked, split it between the  dishes or ramekins.
Cover each  ramekin or dish with the pastry using a sharp knife, cut around the edge of the dish to make the pie top.
Beat the egg with a little water and wash the dough before to bake.


 Place in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is lightly browned and crispy.
I
heat later one in microwaves and was perfect!!

Pastel de pollo









Otra vez tuvimos el intercambio de recetas del Secret Recipe Club, que es super bueno y entretenido
porque es el momento de conocer otras personas, de otros paises, con costumbres distintas, es muy especial.
De hecho he comentado aqui que a veces me ha tocado bloggers que no usan huevos por ejemplo, o veganos y hay que ingeniarselas para encontrar una receta.
Esta vez me tocó el blog de Annie, Annie's Noms un blog excelente con muchas recetas, finalmente elegí este pastel de pollo porque siempre me ha gustado.
Y se calienta perfectamente en microondas.

Ingredientes (4 porciones)
masa
1 taza de harina
1/2 taza de mantequilla
30 ml de agua
pizca de sal
1 huevo batido para el brillo de la masa

Relleno de pollo

1 cucharada de aceite
1 cucharadita mantequilla
1 y 1/2 pechuga de pollo en trozos pequeños
1 cebolla picada fina
3 tiras de tocino cortado en tiras
1/2 pimiento rojo picado fino
2 cucharadas de caldo de pollo o 1 cubo de caldo de pollo
3 cucharadas de crema
agua para la consistencia de la salsa segun se desee
sal y pimienta a gusto

Preparación

Primero preparar la masa porque debe reposar un rato.
Poner la harina, sal y mantequilla en un bol. Unir con los dedos hasta que tenga consistencia de migas de pan.
Agregar de a poco el agua hasta hacer una masa . Envolver en film plastico y  dejar reposar por lo menos 30 minutos.

Mientras preparar el relleno.

Precalentar el horno a 180°
En un sarten grande o wok calentar el aceite y la mantequilla.
Agregar la cebolla picada y el tocino en tiritas y tapar por unos 5 minutos para que se suavizen, cocer a fuego medio y revolver de vez en cuando.
Agregar el pollo en trozos y el pimiento rojo, revolver y dejar cocinar unos 5 minutos para que se dore el pollo.
Agregar el caldo de pollo o el cubo o granulos disuelto en agua. Revolver bien.
Sazonar con sal y pimienta y finalmente la crema, dejar cocer a fuego suave durante unos 10 minutos.
Agregar un poco de agua dependiendo de lo espeso que se quiera el guiso.
Preparar los ramekins u ollitas de ceramica, repartir el guiso en las ollitas.
Estirar la masa y cubrir cada ollita o plato cerámico con la masa.
batir el huevo con un poco de agua y con una broche pintar la masa.
Llevar a horno por unos 20 a 25 minutos, hasta que esten dorados y crujientes.
Tuve que calentar más tarde uno de los pies en microondas y quedó perfecto.

  34. These sound so delicious. I wish I could find real bacon here in France the stuff we get is not a par on what I am used to. The French may be good at most things but they need to learn how to make bacon!! Keep well. Diane
