Chicken Pie With a Twist
You must have had all kinds of pie, but trust me, this one will be the best. The easiest, most straightforward, yet most fantastic bakery-style chicken pie. The twist in this recipe is it's not baked, but it's fried. It is OK to gain extra calories when you eat such tasty food.
I first tried this recipe in the baked version. My mom said this would taste better if it was fried. So one day, I tried this updated recipe, and wow, everyone loved this new chicken pie. I have been making pie the same way ever since. I am very excited to share this recipe. Without any further ado, we will begin with the recipe.
