Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp olive oil, plus 1 tbsp extra to brush
  • 400g pack trimmed leeks, sliced
  • 3 tbsp plain flour
  • 75g La Vie Smoked Plant-Based Bacon Lardons
  • 1 Oxo Vegetable Stock Cube, mixed with 600ml boiling water
  • 2 x 160g packs Heura Chick’n Pieces Mediterranean
  • ½ lemon, juice
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 20g pack tarragon, leaves finely chopped
  • 270g 3 sheets filo pastry

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C, gas mark 4. Heat the oil in a large sauté pan over a medium heat and add the leeks. Fry, stirring often, for 8-10 minutes until soft and a little coloured.

  2. Stir in the flour to coat the leeks. Fry, stirring for 2 minutes, then add the lardons and turn the heat up. Add the stock in a few additions, stirring all the time and allowing the liquid to thicken up in between, to form a thick sauce that easily coats the back of a spoon.

  3. Stir in the chick’n pieces, lemon juice, mustard and tarragon, then season. Transfer to a pie dish, scrunch the filo sheets over the top and brush with 1 tbsp olive oil. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, until golden and crisp. Rest the pie for 5 minutes out of the oven, then serve.
