chicken

💰Cheaper: turkey

Turkey is often less expensive than chicken.

Cook chicken thighs in boiling water until fully cooked, about 20 minutes.

Remove chicken, shred it, and set aside.

In a skillet, heat sunflower oil over medium heat and sauté onion and garlic until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Add canned corn, canned carrots, and peas; cook until heated through, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in shredded chicken, stock cubes, black pepper, and salt; cook for another 5 minutes.

Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly.

Roll out pastry dough and line a pie dish with half of it.

Fill the pie with the chicken mixture, spreading evenly.

Cover with the remaining pastry dough, sealing the edges well.

Make a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

Brush the top with egg yolk for a golden finish.

Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.

Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
