This has been a favourite of mine for over 8 years when a lovely friend shared her version of this with me. A few tweaks later and this is a regular in our house. We make this in parcel form as shown and as a sauce over pasta. The parcels are my partners favourite.
We aren’t huge mushroom eaters. I actually like them in this but my partner doesn’t. You can easily leave them out.
Don’t let the sour cream scare you. I hated sour cream before tasting this dish. You can switch it for the Philadelphia Cream for Cooking if you prefer that or Creme Friache. The flavour isn’t the same but still tasty.
You can also bulk this up with more veggies. Peas, diced zucchini and corn work well.

Hi there just making these for dinner. Should I of cooled the chicken mixture before putting on pastry? Recipe didn’t say and the pastry went a bit soggy like. Tastes delish! Only making 4 for tonight’s dinner then freezing the left over for a pasta sauce another day 🙂
I always pop into pastry hot. Ive been making the for years so work quickly 🙂
Glad you liked them!
Made these Monday night and loved by all even me who is not a mushroom lover. We had half for dinner and froze the rest for lunches.
Can I make 4 parcels and reheat the remaining mixture to serve over pasta the next night? It’s just the two of us, and I thought I could stretch the mixture over 2 nights.
You sure can. Its delicious on pasta.
I froze the left over and then used as pasta sauce. Must say it didn’t look pretty but tasted so yummy!
This was awesome Peta!!! We had half as parcels for dinner last night, then the other half on pasta tonight as a chicken carbonara. It was fab! Thank you xx
