Pastilla (Moroccan Chicken Pie)
By: Riz Asad
Pastilla Moroccan Chicken Pie
"Pastilla (Moroccan chicken pie) fuses together sweet and savoury notes to create a rustic-looking dish that’s unlike anything else. Aromatic and full of flavour, this recipe is one you don’t want to miss. After all, how often do you get to dust your lunch with icing sugar? Sometimes called bastilla, this recipe uses chicken as the main meat filling however, there are traditional variations that use rabbit or pigeon instead. The filling (chicken, almond, and egg) is wrapped in crispy pastry, and is usually served by itself as a main course."
