Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 190ºC/375ºF/Gas Mark 5
- Place the chicken breasts in an ovenproof dish and brush with the melted butter, season with sea salt and black pepper, and cover loosely with foil. Place in the oven and cook for 40 – 45 minutes, until just cooked through. Remove from the oven, cool slightly and slice into chunks. Place into pie dish or into a baking dish with a lip.
- Blanch the peas in boiling water and drain immediately and scatter over the chicken with the ham. Mix the crème fraîche, cream, chives and mustard together and spoon over the top of the chicken mixture and grill for 5 minutes until heated through and golden brown.
- Create a pastry lid – On a floured surface, roll the pastry to thickness of 1cm, cut a long strip as wide as the rim of the pie dish and using a little beaten egg, fix to the edge of the pie dish. Brush with the egg, and then lift the rest of the pastry over the pie, using the rolling pin to help.
