Nice recipe! I haven't made a free...Hello Joe,<br /><br />Nice recipe! I haven't made a free-standing savory pie before. We have a dish which we call Chicken Pastel in our country - but that basically involves a creamy chicken filling, quite similar to your recipe, and topped with a crust. It's more forgiving since even if the filling underneath is liquid-y, it won't be a disaster since the dish will still cook through and the crust will still brown.<br /><br />My only concern is that if I make this, I might get filling oozing out of the crust onto the baking pan. <br /><br />There seems to be a fair amount of solids-to-liquid ratio in your filling - but inasmuch as I am an incompetent cook, I'd like to do this by the numbers. <br /><br />When you put in the filling, do you still get a fair amount of runny sauce? or is the mixture relatively dry, as it cooks?<br /><br />Thanks, Joe - you really put a lot of work in your blog, and I get a lot of ideas from you!<br /><br /><br />RonDeeGeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11517102060008094980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14099844.post-81201355107094525782011-06-08T20:45:04.961-04:002011-06-08T20:45:04.961-04:00Anon - I appreciate the support!Anon - I appreciate the support!Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12900263145684208002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14099844.post-46514740488033149252011-06-06T13:43:55.379-04:002011-06-06T13:43:55.379-04:00Great blog and this chicken pocket pies look great...Great blog and this chicken pocket pies look great!
