I made this pie when my oldest daughter turned eighteen. Everyone loved it! It’s very easy to make, gluten free and so, so delicious. However, I never follow the instructions exactly. I take short cuts, yeah, I’m a lazy cook, add something here and there and so on…soooo have fun with my recipes! Shape them, turn things around and…did I say this already…HAVE FUN!
Oh, and I’ve changes the measurements for you, but if you’re still unsure, check my post about cooking measurements (US) 🙂

CHICKEN-FETA PIE
Pie Crust:
Ingredients
4 oz (100g) butter
1 ¼ cup (3 dl) gluten free all-purpose flour
¼ ts salt
2 tbs cold water
3 tbs (½ dl) grated cheese
Filling:
12 -16 oz (300-400g) honey marinated chicken strips
4 oz (100g) feta cheese
6-8 sun dried tomatoes; diced
6 oz (150-200g) grated cheese (I used Emmental Cheese but you can use any cheese that is not too strong…cheddar, gouda etc.)
A couple of cherry tomatoes, sliced
1 ¼ cup (3 dl) cream
3 eggs
½ ts salt
2-3 ts basil
A pinch of oregano
A pinch of black pepper
Directions:
First, mix up the Pie Crust:
- Mix the soft butter, flour and salt. I soften the butter in the microwave but you can just leave it on the table for couple of hours or melt it a bit in a pot.
- Add grated cheese and water.
- Work the dough into a smooth lump by using your hands or a mixer. Press the dough on the buttered pie pan.
- Bake about 10 minutes in 430 degrees F (225C), until the crust turns light brown.
Next make the filling:
- Mix the cream and the eggs in a bowl. Put it aside.
- Add everything else except the tomato slices on top of the crust.
- Add cream/egg blend on top of the filling.
- Decorate with tomato slices.
- Bake about 20-25 minutes in 430 degrees F, until the filling is congealed and looks beautiful.
- Let it cool a bit before decorating with basil or other herbs.
- Enjoy!
