Mini Chicken Pot Pies with Bacon and Marjoram

These mini chicken pot pies with bacon and marjoram offer a sophisticated twist on a classic comfort food favourite. By using shop-bought roast chicken and ready-rolled puff pastry, you can create a deeply savoury, high-protein meal without spending hours in the kitchen. The addition of applewood-smoked bacon and fresh marjoram provides a wonderful depth of flavour, while the crème fraîche creates a rich, velvety sauce that perfectly coats the tender vegetables and succulent chicken pieces.

Perfect for a midweek treat or an easy weekend dinner, these individual pies are as practical as they are delicious. Serving the filling in separate dishes ensures every person gets a generous portion of crisp, golden crust. This recipe is an excellent way to use up leftover poultry, and the inclusion of baby carrots and green beans adds a fresh, vibrant crunch to every bite. Serve immediately while the pastry is light and the filling is piping hot.
