Flaky puff pastry encases a delicious filling made with chicken and leeks in a creamy sauce. This chicken and leek pie includes freshly poached chicken and homemade pastry but this is an ideal recipe for using up leftover roast chicken and, if time is short, use ready made pastry or just a pastry top. I prefer to make my pastry with a high quantity of fat to flour as I like the pastry to melt. The key to a great chicken pie is ensuring that it is packs a real punch of flavour; there is nothing worse than a pie with a lacklustre filling. It's got to be creamy, decadent and packed with a good amount of meat and creamy leek sauce.
