Succulent chicken and vegetables baked in a flaky filo pastry crust.
Ingredients:
  • 18.20 gm extra virgin olive oil
  • 1kg chicken thigh fillets, trimmed, quartered
  • 4 rashers shortcut bacon, chopped
  • 1 leek, halved, thinly sliced
  • 2 corncobs, kernels removed
  • 40.00 ml plain flour
  • 310ml (1 1 ⁄4 cups) salt reduced chicken style liquid stock
  • 2 bunches asparagus, trimmed, thinly sliced, keeping tips whole
  • 60ml (1/4 cup) creme fraiche
  • 4 sheets filo pastry
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C/160°C fan forced. Heat oil in a 20cm ovenproof frying pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken and cook in 2 batches for 5 minutes each. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Cook bacon and leek in a pan over medium heat, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes. Stir in corn for 1 minute. Mix in flour until combined. Remove from heat. Slowly incorporate stock, stirring constantly, until smooth. Add chicken back to the pan. Reduce heat to low. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 7 minutes. Stir in asparagus for 3 minutes until tender-crisp. Remove from heat, season, and stir in creme fraiche.
  • Spray each filo sheet lightly with olive oil. Scrunch them gently and arrange on top of the chicken mixture. Give them a final light spray of oil. Bake until golden and crisp, about 15 minutes.
