Chicken and mushroom pies recipe

Serves 4

Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2 cup chopped mushrooms
• 1/3 cup peas
• 1 large shallot, minced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1-1/2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1-1/2 pounds precooked chicken, cut into cubes
• 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1-1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed and cut evenly into 4 squares
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• Nonstick cooking spray

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly spray 4 (8 ounce) baking ramekins with the nonstick spray and set aside.
2. Add the olive oil to a skillet over medium heat. When hot, add the mushrooms, peas, shallot and garlic. Cover and cook for 3-4 minutes.
3. Add the rosemary, salt and pepper along with the cubed chicken, and mix.
4. Mix in the Greek yogurt and mustard, and stir, cooking, for about a minute or so. Remove the mixture from the heat.
5. Evenly spoon the mixture into the ramekins. Top each with 1 square of the puff pastry, and lightly brush the egg over the tops.
6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the topping is golden and puffed.
7. Remove from the oven and allow them to sit for a few minutes before serving. The contents of the ramekins will still be very hot, so be sure to let your guests know.

The perfect pie for dinner!
