Yesterday I was in a cooking mood, especially since I really didn't cook anything interesting all week due to being laid up. I pulled out my Christmas present (which Debbie highly recommended) : Around My French Table by Dorie Greenspan and this recipe sounded good. There are lots of chicken recipes in this but that's fine with me since I love chicken. I started at 1 pm and dinner was served by 6 pm. It took a long time: marinate an hour, cook an hour, then bake for 40 minutes, plus prep time... but it was really easy... all except for the filo pastry dough which I always seem to struggle with. It still worked despite my silly crust. And it was tasty! And the house smelled like it when I woke up this morning, which to us is the smell of home. I can't wait to try another recipe out of it.

That looks delicious! My mouth is watering.
It sounds lovely! I am getting my kitchen together - slowly. I even managed to put some things in the cupboards today!! Washing machine and fridge freezer arriving tomorrow!
Yum!
so glad you are liking that cookbook! Haven't tried her chicken recipes yet but been stuck on the soups.
Wow, that looks amazing! I love pot pies (including ones with filo crust) of any kind except kidneys...
If the animals don't eat up the house, the birds will go after it :)
You said you struggled with the pyllo, but it sure doesn't look it -- the b'stilla looks beautiful and I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
Now you have me wanting to buy that cookbook! That recipe looks delicious.
