One-Dish Butter Chicken Pie

Ingredients

• 1¾ lb (780 g) chicken breast, diced into small pieces
• 7 oz (200 g) puff pastry (1 serving per pie)

Butter Chicken Base Sauce

• 1½ cups protein-boosted milk
• ¾ cup (250 g) Greek yogurt
• 6 tbsp (170 g) tomato paste

Butter Chicken Spice Mix (or use a store-bought butter chicken paste)

• 2 tbsp (12 g) curry powder
• 1 tbsp (6 g) garam masala
• 1 tbsp (6 g) ground cumin
• 2 tsp ground ginger
• 2 tsp garlic powder
• 1.5 tsp salt
• 1 tsp turmeric

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• In a large bowl, whisk together the butter chicken base sauce and the spices.
• Add the diced raw chicken to oven-safe containers.
• Divide the sauce evenly among the containers.
• Top each with a square of puff pastry and cut a small slit in the top to let steam escape.
• Brush the pastry with beaten egg.
• Place the containers on a baking sheet to catch any overflow.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbling (chicken should reach 165°F / 74°C).
• Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Caution: the containers will be hot.
