Ingredients
8 Co-op British chicken drumsticks, skin removed
1 onion, peeled and chopped
2 Co-op British carrots, chopped
2 OXO chicken stock cubes
Dash Worcester sauce
2 tbsp cornflour
70g Co-op frozen peas
320g sheet shortcrust pastry
1 Co-op British egg, beaten
Co-op mashed potato (optional)
480g Co-op green beans
Method
Preheat the oven to 170°C/fan 140°C/Gas 3
Place the chicken drumsticks in a pan with the onion, carrots and 500ml water
Bring to the boil and crumble in the OXO chicken stock cubes
Reduce to a simmer and cook for 50-60 mins
Remove the drumsticks and allow to cool, then strip the meat from the bone
Add the Worcester sauce and season the stock well with black pepper
Mix the cornflour into a paste using 2 tbsp cold water, add to the pan and stir through, then bring to the boil
Once the stock has thickened, return to a simmer, add the peas and chicken, and bring to the boil once more
Remove from the heat and pour the mixture into a large pie dish
Roll out the pastry into a rectangle big enough to cover the top of the pie with plenty of overlap
Brush with a little of the beaten egg and place on top of the pie, pressing down the edges
Place in the oven for 20-25 mins, until the pastry is golden brown
Meanwhile, cook the mash, if using, according to the pack instructions and boil the beans for 3 mins then drain
Serve alongside the pie.
