Storage
Chicken pie filling can be frozen for up to three months. Add pastry to the defrosted filling and bake until the pastry is cooked through and the filling is piping hot.
Preparation
The secret to crisp pastry on top of a chicken pie is to cool the filling completely before adding the lid. Steam from a hot filling can melt the fat in the pastry too soon and create a soggy top and bottom.
