• Add chicken and cook until browned then add spring onion, corn and cream.
• In a cup mix together cornflour with 1 tablespoon of water, add to mixture and keep stiring until it thickens. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool.
• Grease a muffin or pie tin with oil or butter, cut pastry to fit then line each hole. Fill each with mixture and place pastry lid on top. Squeeze edges together so filling does not escape.

MINI CHICKEN POT PIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375F.
• Combine the chicken, mixed vegetables and cream of chicken soup in a medium bowl and stir well.
• Separate each of the biscuits and place them into the compartments of a greased muffin tin.
• Using your fingers, push down on the dough starting in the middle, then working the dough up the sides of each of the muffin compartments, as high as it will go.
• Add the filling to each of the compartments (approximately 2 Tablespoons each).
• Bake at 375F for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.

CORN CHIP PIE

Steps:

• Take corn chips out of bag (or and open bag and leave chips in).
• Place shredded cheese on top. Pour Pinto Beans over the cheese (hot beans help melt the cheese quicker). Sprinkle Brisket on top. Garnish with BBQ Sauce.
• Preheat a smoker or oven for cooking at about 225 degrees F.
• Trim brisket fat on the deckle (large side) just enough to where there is still fat covering the meat. (You do not need to trim the pork butt.) Stir together the pepper, salt, sugar, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder and onion powder in a small bowl. Apply the rub to all sides of the meat thoroughly. Let sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Place in smoker or oven and let cook until internal temperature reaches 200 degrees F, about 12 hours.
• Let sit 30 minutes, then chop meat.
• Cover beans with water by 2 inches and bring to a boil to get the outer layer off. Boil 2 minutes, then drain all water and put beans back in pot. Add water to cover 2 inches above the top of the beans. Bring to a boil.
• Meanwhile, saute the onions, jalapenos and garlic in some oil in another pan until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, then let simmer for another 1 to 2 minutes and add to the bean pot. Add the garlic pepper, chili powder and salt to the bean pot and let simmer, stirring every 20 minutes, until soft, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
• Mix the ketchup, vinegar, molasses, steak sauce, mustard, Worcestershire, BBQ rub, garlic pepper, black pepper, cinnamon and 3 quarts water in a 5-gallon bucket.

MINI CHICKEN PIES

Steps:

• Roll out pastry until a little thinner than a £1 coin. Cut out 8 x 9cm circles and use to line 8 holes of a muffin tin. Divide chicken, peas and asparagus between moulds, season, then dollop over 1 tbsp crème fraîche.
• Cut out 8 x 7cm circles to make tops for the pies. Lightly brush edges of the pie bases with egg, place each top onto its pie and press down into the filling. Pinch together the sides to seal. Leave to rest in the fridge for 30 mins, or up to 2 days if preparing in advance.
• Heat oven to 200c/fan 180c/gas 6. Brush tops with more egg and bake pies for 30-35 mins or until the pastry is crisp and golden. Serve warm or leave to cool.

PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH CORN PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• In a saucepan over medium heat, stir together the potato, whole kernel corn, creamed corn, hard cooked eggs, salt, pepper and milk. Simmer for about 15 minutes.
• Press one of the pie crusts in to the bottom and up the sides of a 9 inch pie plate. I like to use clear glass so I can check the bottom crust for doneness. Pour the hot filling into the crust. Dot with pieces of butter. Cover with the top crust, and flute the edges to seal. Cut a few slits in the top crust to vent steam. Place on a cookie sheet that has been lined with aluminum foil for easy clean up.
• Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, then reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the crust is browned. Serve hot.
