A ground chicken pie can be a healthy alternative to a family dinner. The recipe is easily prepared from a few simple ingredients and served hot.
A pie is a dish cooked in the oven, which is usually made from a layer of pastry dough and a filling of various sweet or salty ingredients.
Pies can be made as a main dish, meat or cheese pie, and a dessert, apple pie, or fruit. The pies are prepared differently depending on the traditions of each country. The word pie is inherited from Latin: “placenta”, which means “cake”.
The traditional pie recipes are apple pie, cheese pie, potato pie, cabbage pie, chocolate pie. From these traditional recipes, a lot of other pie recipes or even quiche recipes have developed over the years. Check out my ground chicken pie recipe that I guarantee you’ll love.
