Instructions
- Prepare the Savory Keto Crust by following this recipe.
- - just make 1 1/2 the amount of the recipe to have enough crust for the top of the pie.
- Only use 2/3 of the dough to press in the pan - leave the rest for the top of the pie and keep it in the fridge.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes (see detailed instructions here).
- When the pie crust is done, remove from the oven and let it cool down.
- When cooled, loosen the crust from the edges and bottom - use a sharp knife if needed.
- Meanwhile, dice the chicken thighs, peel and slice the carrot.
- Peel and dice the celeriac and cut the green beans into thirds.
- Place everything into a saucepan and add the water and salt.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce to medium-low, cover with a lid and cook for 15-20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, peel and finely chop the onion.
- Place on a pan with all of the butter (or ghee) and cook over a medium heat until caramelised.
- This can take up to 15 minutes - mix to prevent burning.
- Preheat the oven to 200 °C/ 400 °F.
- When the chicken & vegetables are cooked, pour the stock through a sieve and keep the vegetables and meat in the pot - set aside.
- Pour the cream into the pan with onion and stir to combine well.
- Add 1/4 cup - 3/4 cup of the chicken & vegetable stock and mix well.
- When done, season with salt and set aside.
- Keep the remaining stock for another recipe.
- First time I made the pie, I only used 1/4 cup of the stock, second time it was 1/2 cup which I personally preferred.
- The pie was not too dry and not too soggy either.
- Roll out the remaining dough for the top or the pie.
- You'll need to place the dough between two pieces of parchment paper while rolling to avoid tearing the dough.
- Try to achieve a round shape that will fit the pie.
- Place the drained chicken & vegetables into the pie crust.
- Add freshly chopped parsley and pour in the creamed onion and spread evenly over the topping.
- Top with the remaining rolled out dough and press towards the edges.
- Using a knife, make several small slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
- Place in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes.
- Enjoy!
