Chicken Pie
I boiled a chicken on Friday, and we've been slowly decimating the bits since then. Last night I decided that I was tired of just eating chicken pieces, so I decided to take the rest of the meat and make it into a pie. I made another lard crust, which turned out lovely, but I'm still not entirely happy with the pie filling. The last one was much better flavor-wise, though as I recall it had ground pork in it, and pork is just plain better than chicken. I did get it more moist than last time, using up the last of the chicken broth that I didn't freeze. Inside with the chicken were also carrots, peas, a little bit of onion and a Granny Smith apple. It's still good, but I'd like to have a more cohesive texture, and more flavor next time.
