Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Cooked chicken breast
- 50 grams Butter
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 2 Celery stalks, diced
- 1 small Carrot, diced
- 250 ml Chicken broth
- 150 ml Heavy cream
- 100 grams Cream cheese
- 200 grams Almond flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Parsley, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F).
Shred or chop the cooked chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Melt the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and chopped onion, sautéing until the onion is translucent.
Stir in the diced celery and carrot, cooking for another 5 minutes until slightly softened.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer, allowing the mixture to reduce slightly.
Add the heavy cream and cream cheese to the skillet, stirring until the cheese is fully melted and combined.
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and parsley. Mix well.
Gently fold in the chicken pieces, ensuring they are evenly coated in the sauce. Transfer the filling to a pie or baking dish.
In a separate bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
Beat the eggs and add them to the almond flour mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
Flatten and shape the dough to match the size of the pie dish. Carefully place it over the chicken filling.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
Allow the pie to cool for a few minutes before serving to help it set. Enjoy your delicious keto chicken pie!
