Pie dough
You can buy it in the nearest cooking. But we are going to bake a real chicken pie from yeast dough, cooked on our own. First, make sure that all of the ingredients listed are available within the kitchen. Component List:
- milk - 1 cup;
- flour - half a kilogram;
- dry yeast - 1 sachet;
- sugar - 1 tablespoon;
- salt - half a teaspoon;
- vegetable oil - 4 tablespoons;
- an egg - 1 piece.
Instructions for making yeast dough
All products must have room temperature. Therefore, before starting the establishment of the basis for a pie with chicken from yeast dough, remove the components from the refrigerator.
We warm the milk slightly. In a saucepan or large deep bowl, knead the dough as follows.
- Combine milk with yeast and sugar. Stir the ingredients. Leave the dishes in a warm place for 5-10 minutes. The yeast will disperse, they will hiss and rise with a hat.
- Let's continue creating the dough by adding salt, vegetable oil, and a beaten egg to the dishes. Mix all the products again.
- Pour flour in portions. Pre-screen this component. The procedure enriches the flour with oxygen, and the cake will have a finer and more airy structure.
- The finished dough should be soft, but not very sticky to the fingers. We leave it, covering the dishes with a lid or a clean towel, in a warm place. After an hour, you can proceed to the formation of a pie with chicken from yeast dough.
Chicken Filling
To make it juicy and fragrant, prepare it by investing the best feelings. But do not forget about the products. What you need for chicken filling:
- 600-700 grams of chicken breast;
- onions - 1 head (instead of onions, you can use a bunch of green or add both types of onions at the same time);
- cheese - 180-230 grams;
- mayonnaise or sour cream - 200 grams (here you can also take the initiative and add both of these ingredients by mixing them);
- salt, pepper and other greens are optional.
Chicken preparation
Baking in this recipe is prepared with boiled poultry. We wash the chicken breast and send it to the pan of the appropriate volume. Fill with water so that the liquid hides the fillet by at least one and a half to two centimeters. We put the dishes on the stove and, after waiting for the boil, cook the bird for thirty minutes, removing the foam from the broth. Fifteen minutes before the end of the heat treatment, add a laurel sheet if desired. Add the chicken breast. We take out the finished product from the broth and cool well.
Mix the ingredients for the filling.
It remains to mix the components and proceed to the formation of the pie.
Cut the meat into cubes, put in a bowl. We free onions from the husks and chop as you like. If we use green onions, rinse it in cool water and chop finely. Next, add salt and pepper to the bowl to taste.
Cheese grated on a grater of any fraction. Pour shavings to meat with onions. At the end of the process, add mayonnaise or sour cream. Stir the resulting stuffing.
Cake making
Lubricate the baking dish with butter. We are doing it very generously. It is necessary to thoroughly knead the dough and, dividing into two parts, roll into two juices.
First put on a greased baking sheet with sides. It is important to place the base so that the dough covers the sides.
We spread the filling, level it. We turn the second one into a kind of lattice. We cover them with the top of the product. Lubricate with a raw egg.
Before you bake any pies from yeast dough in the oven, you need to let the billets rise, and the oven must be thoroughly heated at this time. The cake will stand for 15-25 minutes.
We send the future delicious cake to the bowels of the oven for 40-45 minutes. The temperature inside is 180-200 degrees.
Having taken out the finished baking, grease the surface with vegetable or butter (if desired).

- Cut the washed raw fillet into very thin slices or small cubes.
- In a frying pan in vegetable oil, fry chopped mushrooms and onions for 15-20 minutes. Add a little salt to the roast.
- Wash the potatoes and peel them. We cut tubers with very thin slices or slices.
We oil a baking sheet with high sides. The total amount of dough is divided into two parts. The part that rolls out more is laid out in a form so that the sides are under the test.
Lay out the filling in layers:
- Potato first. Salt and sprinkle it with spices.
- Now spread the mushrooms with onions. We distribute them over the potato layer.
- Cover the mushrooms with chicken. Salt and pepper the meat layer. Showered with herbs. For greater juiciness, you can pour the filling with a spoon of vegetable oil.
