If the McDonald’s style/rectangular apple and other sweet pies isn’t enough, why not make a savoury version when you can have your own chicken pie with dairy-free gravy at home! For the crust/pastry, you can add a cup of flour as well as a few drips of oil to cover onto a bowl, some salt and sugar and either a few tablespoons of rice milk or water will do as you would want to knead it until your hands are no longer sticky. Put that into the fridge for at least an hour while you go make your own filling by cutting a quarter of chicken of your choice (raw or already frozen) into many pieces, then mix a a tablespoon of dairy-free gravy mix with on a saucepan before you turn the heat up closer to medium and throw the shredded chicken in there also for a few minutes. Once it’s cooked leave the filling until it’s cold for a while, take the pastry out of the fridge after the resting phase and you want to cut the pastry in half to fit a serving of two and leave the other half to save it for next time.
You wanna roll the pastry out with a couple of drops of flour on your chopping board (not too thin) so it doesn’t keep on sticking before you take some chunks out of the pastry in order to make it a perfect rectangular shape for your McDonald’s rectangular style chicken pie. That’s when you can put a good amount of chicken gravy in there, cover the pie up nicely and mix it up with another few drops of flour to stop the pie from sticking out while cooking. Speaking of cooking, put two pies into the air fryer, add a bit of rice milk or oil as your eggwash alternative & fire it up at 185 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes while flipping it to the other side at the halfway mark. And done, cool these pies down for at least 30 minutes as they come out really hot before it’s all ready for you to eat. See it for yourself when you can make your own McDonald’s rectangular style chicken or savoury pies if you like at home as I’m sure you will love this homemade recipe at your own kitchen.
