Simple Chicken Cornish Pasty Recipe

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees f.

Step 2

Cut the pastry to 4 - 6 inch rounds that are about 1/4 inch thick. You should get about 4 pastry rounds from a pre-packaged puff pastry.

Step 3

Mix the chicken, onion, rutabaga, potato and garlic together in a medium bowl. Add the spices and mix.

Step 4

Evenly divide the filling among half of each of the pastry rounds. Leave a small space around the edges.

Step 5

Fold over the uncovered pastry to create a semi-circle and roll up the edges. Slice a few slits in the middle of the pasty to allow steam to escape.

Step 6

Lightly whisk the egg with a tablespoon of water in a small bowl. Brush the tops and edges of the pasties with the egg wash.

Step 7

Bake in the oven for 20 - 25 minutes, or until the pasties are a beautiful golden brown.
