Chicken pie made with puff pastry
Description
The pastry is easy and quick to prepare. Bake the puff pastry in a mold at 180 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Place beans on the bottom to prevent it from rising, as the pie shell will later be filled with filling. This simple trick will help keep your pastry looking beautiful. Look, it can be served with tea or coffee.

Step 1
Place the chicken in a pot and boil until cooked. In a baking dish dusted with flour, lay out the pre-thawed puff pastry and shape the edges to form the pie crust. Sprinkle raw beans over the pastry as weights to prevent the pastry from rising during baking. Place the pastry-lined dish in the oven for 20 minutes at 180 degrees.
