Nothing says Autumn to me like a nice, hearty pie. The creamy, comforting filling mixed with cooked chicken and little bites of salty ham is the perfect dinner to fill you up! It’s also perfect if you have any leftover shredded chicken from your Roast Chicken. Trust me, the whole family will be coming back for seconds!
📋 Ingredients
Shredded Chicken – You can use shredded chicken from a store-bought rotisserie chicken, or from a homemade Roast Chicken, so you get a nice mix of light and dark meat. Shortcrust Pastry – Another shortcut for this recipe is to use store-bought ready rolled shortcrust pastry, make sure to defrost if you bought it frozen. Strong Chicken Stock – I used 2 stock cubes and 1 1/4 cups of water. Fresh Lemon Juice – The juice from a whole lemon. Cooked Ham – Buy ready-chopped ham chunks or shredded ham hock or chop some ham from a cooked ham.

🍽️ What to serve it with
This goes perfectly paired with: Easy Spring Greens, Steamed Vegetable Medley, or Garlic Green Beans with Parmesan. Also, Crispy Smashed Potatoes or Air Fryer Chips.
I could really eat that filling by the ladle-full! Word of warning – it is a saucy pie! I had to push this back together before photographing it, as the sauce wants to ooze out everywhere!
