Cook the Chicken Filling
Ingredients:
• 500gm/1 pound chicken meat diced
• 1 tbs oil
• 2 tbs soy sauce
• 1 tsp cornflour
• salt, pepper
Step 1: Marinade
Cut 1 pound/ 500gm of chicken pieces into 1 inch sized cubes.Marinade with the seasoning as above.
Ideally, allow the chicken meat to soak up the marinade in the refrigerator for at least a couple of hours. It's not essential, but meat does taste so much richer when marinade has time to soak into the meat.
Step 2: Pan Fry
Pan fry the marinaded chicken meat in a non-stick fry pan. I prefer using non-stick cookware so as to avoid additional oil in my cooking.As we know, our hips are thankful for every little bit of fat not consumed.
Otherwise cook with a tablespoon of polyunsaturated vegetable oil. I prefer to use rice bran oil as it is suitable for high temperature cooking.
Pan frying will take only a few minutes. Brown on high and then lower the heat till the meat is well cooked.
Step 3:
Leave this aside for the moment while you prepare the filo pastry.The chicken and the pumpkin filling will both go into this diabetic pumpkin pie recipe.
