Layered pie with chicken and mushrooms
Description
The recipe won't take much time. For this pie you don't need to make the dough, as we will use ready-made puff pastry. All we have to do is thaw it. For the filling we take chicken and button mushrooms. But this can easily be substituted with turkey and forest mushrooms, for example. The chicken meat can be boiled or fried. It can be served with tea or coffee.
