I love leeks cooked in any conceivable way and the pistachios add texture and work really well with the chicken.

I had to had a touch of olive oil to the potoatoes and carrots as they were beginning to stick to the pot. We don't eat much creamy food, so chicken pies have not been in our rotation for a long time. So glad to have a healthy version now and yummy to boot! From the hand-held pasty to the potato-topped fish pie or the always delicious steak and kidney, a good savory pie is hard to refuse. And this version filled with chicken and leek is a fantastic pie to get started with, if this type of dish is not already one of your favorites.
