Ingredients

  • 2 sheets puff pastry, just thawed
  • 100g unsalted butter
  • 2 leeks, pale section only, thinly sliced
  • 300g tub Coles Kitchen Chicken & Corn Soup
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 tbs dried mixed herbs
  • 2 tbs chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • 1/2 Coles Hot Roast Chicken, bones and skin removed, meat shredded
  • 2 1/2 tbs plain flour
  • 1/2 cup (40g) finely grated parmesan
  • 1 egg, lightly whisked
  • Sesame seeds, to sprinkle

Method

STEP 1

Preheat oven to 220°C. Grease a pie dish. Press 1 sheet of pastry firmly into the base and sides of the dish, trimming excess.

STEP 2

Line the pastry with a piece of baking paper and fill with baking weights or rice. Bake for 10-12 mins. Remove weights and paper. Bake for a further 5 mins or until dry to the touch, then set aside to cool.

STEP 3

Meanwhile, heat butter in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the leek and cook, stirring, for 8 mins or until leek starts to caramelise.

STEP 4

Combine the soup, garlic, dried herbs, parsley, chicken, flour and parmesan in a bowl. Add the leek and stir to combine. Spoon into the pastry case. Brush the edges of the pastry with a little egg. Top with the remaining sheet of pastry, trimming excess. Press the edges to seal.

STEP 5

Brush the top of the pastry with more egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

STEP 6

Bake for 30 mins or until the filling is heated through and the pastry is golden and puffed. Set aside to cool slightly before serving
