Ingredients

  • 1 pinch Black Pepper
  • 200 g Broccoli florets
  • 2 - Chicken Breast boneless, skinless and cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 100 ml Chicken Stock Cube
  • 1 tsp Dried Basil Leaves
  • 10 g Low Fat Butter
  • 3 tsp Low Fat Milk
  • 1 tsp Olive Oil
  • 1 small Onion diced
  • 10 g Plain Flour
  • 1 sheet Puff Pastry thawed if frozen
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 30 g SuperValu Sweetcorn 326g

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200oC/gas mark 6.
  2. Warm the butter and oil in a large pan set over a medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken, onion and basil and cook for a few minutes, until the chicken is sealed. Season with salt and pepper, then add the sweetcorn and flour and cook for a few minutes more. Reduce the heat to medium, then add the stock and cook for about 10 minutes.
  3. Fill a separate pot with water and bring to the boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 3 minutes, then remove from the pan with a slotted spoon. Add to the chicken mixture and cook for another 2 minutes. The sauce should be thick, but add 2 teaspoons of the milk to give it a creamy appearance and to thin it out a bit. Put into an ovenproof pie dish and set aside.
  4. Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and measure it to make sure it's big enough to cover your baking dish, plus a little extra to go over the edge. Place over the dish and roll over the edges with a rolling pin, making sure all the filling is sealed in. Prick the pastry all over with a fork and brush with the remaining teaspoon of milk. Bake in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown.
