PREP LIFE
Boil the kettle. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Dilute the stock with 200ml of boiling water. In a small bowl, mix the quinoa flakes and the ground almonds with some seasoning.
WING IT
Place a pot over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the Chicken pieces and fry for 3-5 minutes until cooked through and browned. Remove from the pot.
FANCY FILLING
Return the pot to a medium-high heat with another drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the diced onion, Carrot chunks and sliced mushrooms. Fry for 3-5 minutes until soft, shifting occasionally. Add in ½ the peas and the chopped thyme. Fry until the peas are heated through, about 1-2 minutes, shifting constantly. Stir through a large knob of butter or another drizzle of oil. Once the butter is melted or the oil is incorporated, sprinkle over the flour and cook out for about 1-2 minutes, shifting constantly. Slowly pour in the diluted stock and milk, mixing constantly. Mix until there are no lumps of flour. Leave to simmer for 5-6 minutes until slightly reduced and thickened, mixing occasionally.
CRISPY CRUST
Once the pie filling has thickened, mix through the cooked Chicken pieces. Pour the mixture into an ovenproof dish. Sprinkle over the quinoa and almond mixture and place in the oven for 3-5 minutes until browned.
TOSS THE LEAVES
In a salad bowl, mix the remaining Peas and the salad leaves. Add a drizzle of olive oil and some seasoning, and toss until fully coated.
