Ok well I use cooked chicken. Whatever is your favourite. I prefer dark
meat so I roast a tray (about 8) of thighs. Pick the meat off the bones etc

I don't really do quantities but I will try a bit. It depends on your
taste really.

3 large onions sliced and chopped garlic cooked in some oil for about 10
mins with a lid on till soft. Add a couple of tblspns Mush Ketchup and a
teaspoon balsamic vinegar if you have it. If not a little sugar will do. *

Cook and keep stirring till they are getting a bit caramelised. Add 3 or 4
large field mushrooms (depending on size) cut in a large dice. and cook fast
just to brown a bit but not to let them get soft. Add chicken and some
stock to cover. Taste and if you feel it needs a wee bit more ooomph, add
some more Mush ketchup. Cook it down a bit but if I think it needs
thickening I add a couple (or less) lumps of 'flour paste' ** See how it
goes, if you want it a bit thicker then add more. Cook it out a bit and I
then make a pastry top and bake it.

Oh yes, don't forget seasoning but taste before you do because it ought to
have plenty of flavour.

I guess you would call that a pot pie?

btw that amount give me enough for two pies. I make one and freeze half the
filling for another:)

* I often use this as a base for gravy.

** 'flour paste' I don't like the fuss of working with loose flour, so I
make a paste of half butter and half flour. I usually mix half a pound of
each at in my mixer at once and it keeps beautifully on my counter unless my
kitchen gets very hot. I just add a few lumps when I need something
thickened:)

Do you get horrible factory-made chickens in the UK? The way they produce them
in the States is a horror show. Not even sqwishy should suffer a fate like
what they do to chickens here.

I can do that... and even have the balsamic vinegar. I'd definitely
use rosemary to season. No real mushrooms, just mushroom ketchup?

I call it a pot pie after I put it in a container and cover it with a
pastry crust. :)
