Chicken & chorizo pie - what sauce?

Rosencrantz, 1 December, 2008 at 17:16 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 1

I'm making chicken & chorizo pie for dinner. Usually I use roast chicken, pan fry a bit of chorizo sausage and bung it all in a pie dish with a white sauce (made with butter, flour & milk) and a puff pastry top. This is fine, the sauce is nice and creamy, but I wonder if there is a better way of doing it?

Can anyone suggest a more interesting sauce to cover the meat with? I have fresh cream, herbs & spices, stock and wine in the cupboard to use.

    We tend to make 'Chicken in a Pot'

    Slice up some chorizo into 1 inch pieces

    In a large pan

    Fry off the chorizo in a little oil then put to one side

    Fry off pieces of chicken (usually thighs) in chorizo oil, when browned, put to one side

    Fry 1 chopped onion and 1/2 cloves of crushed garlic

    Put the chorizo and chicken back in the pot

    Add 2 tins of chopped tomatoes and a slug of red wine

    Add in a handful of chopped mushrooms

    Add some potatoes

    Add mixed herbs

    Season to taste

    Simmer until potatoes are soft and chicken falls off the bone

    Serve with sour cream!
