Ingredients

· 1 fondue Chic! fumée (smoked) by 1001 Fondues, 350 g (12 oz.)
· 30 ml (2 tbsp.) vegetable oil
· 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
· 30 ml (2 tbsp.) butter
· 1 onion, chopped
· 250 ml (1 cup) carrots, diced
· 250 ml (1 cup) celery, diced
· 250 ml (1 cup) 15% cooking cream
· Pinch of cayenne pepper
· 2 sheets of puff pastry
· Butter and vegetable oil for cooking
· 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
· Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Preparation
  1. In a large skillet or saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken cubes until golden and fully cooked, about 10 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the butter and cook the onion for 3 minutes. Add the diced carrots and celery. Continue to cook over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add the cooking cream and cheese fondue. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring well, until a smooth mixture is achieved.
  4. Add the chicken to the mixture. Stir in the cayenne pepper and adjust seasoning with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Let the mixture cool.
  5. Place the rack in the centre of the oven and preheat the oven to 375 °F (190 °C). Butter and flour the bottom of a deep pie dish.
  6. Cover the pie dish with a sheet of puff pastry. Fill with the chicken mixture. Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg. Cover with the second sheet of puff pastry and seal the edges well. Brush the top of the pie with the egg wash and make a few slits in the centre of the pastry.
  7. Bake in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Preheat your oven and get ready for a culinary adventure that promises to delight everyone, young and old alike!
