Layered pie with chicken
Description
The pastry is simple and quick to prepare. You can bake this pie using either regular puff pastry or filo dough. As for the filling, there are many possible variations: in addition to minced meat, you can add vegetables, mushrooms, cheese, and various spices. This recipe includes plenty of fresh herbs, which will give the filling a special flavor and aroma. Also, I suggest adding a handful of nuts and raisins for a touch of piquancy. Give it a try—you're sure to enjoy this pie. Serve it with tea or coffee.
