This Quorn chicken pie recipe brings a delicious veggie twist to a quintessential British comfort food: Chicken and Leek Pie!

Vegetarian Quorn Chicken Pie

This Quorn chicken pie recipe brings a delicious veggie twist to a quintessential British comfort food: Chicken and Leek Pie!

This meat-free version uses Quorn Chicken Style Pieces. Melting in the mouth, it is fragranced with a subtle hint of mustard and has just the right amount of creaminess.

Quorn is made from a fermented mycoprotein (fungi) grown in the UK. Once collected the mycoprotein goes through a fermentation process similar to the ones used in the production of bread, yoghurt and beer. The resulting product is then textured, frozen and seasoned to resemble chicken, beef, turkey etc.

Quorn is considered a healthy protein source. It has a very similar structure to meat while being high in protein and fibre and low in fat. Per 100g Quorn Chicken Style Pieces contain 14g protein / 1.4g fat  / 8.3g fibre and 0.8g salt.

Quorn Chicken Style Pieces have the taste and feel just like chicken. They are fantastic to cook with if you are trying to reduce the amount of meat you are eating. Ideal if you are in a rush, they take only 14 mins to cook on the hob.

If you are vegan, you can still enjoy Quorn as they have just launched 2 new vegan products in the UK.

How to make this Quorn Chicken Pie

First, you will need to make the pastry by mixing the flour and mustard powder together with the butter and cheese. The dough will fine bread crumbs at first but as you add more and more water it will all come together. While the dough is resting you can start preparing the filling.

The filling of this Quorn pie recipe is made from leeks and Quorn Chicken Style Pieces that are gently fried in oil and butter. Once the leeks and Quorn pieces have softened, vegetable stock and milk are added to make a creamy sauce.

Once the sauce has thickened, spoon the Quorn mixture into a pie dish. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface and use it to cover the top of the pie dish.

The pie will need to be baked for 25 minutes in the oven until the top is golden. You can serve it with seasonal vegetables and new potatoes if desired.

    Really surprised how melt in the mouth this was. I used mature cheddar in my pastry, as I was using what I had in the house, I also substituted the mustard powder for wholegrain mustard.

    Something I will definitely make again.

      Hi Jules, so glad you liked it. If the Quorn you used for the recipe was frozen, then I would not refreeze it. Annabelle
