Description

A hearty and flavorful Russian-style pie filled with tender chicken and sautéed cabbage.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 1 lb chicken breast, cooked and shredded
  • 2 cups cabbage, finely shredded
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried dill
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add water until dough forms. Chill for 30 minutes.
  2. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté onion until translucent, then add cabbage and cook until softened. Stir in shredded chicken, pepper, and dill. Remove from heat.
  3. Roll out dough into two circles. Place one in a pie dish, add filling, then cover with the second dough circle. Seal edges and brush with egg wash. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden.
