How to bake a chicken coop in a chicken oven? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Boil the chicken fillet beforehand and cool. You can cut the fillets into small pieces so that they cook faster.

Wash the potatoes, peel, put in a saucepan, fill with cold water and put on heat. Add a pinch of salt. The potatoes, unlike chicken fillet, boil until semi-cooked for 10-12 minutes. The exact time depends on the potato variety and the power of your stove. Turn off the heat when the potatoes are still a little hard. Drain the water and cool the potatoes.

While the chicken and potatoes are cooking, make the pie dough. The dough will be yeast-free, based on margarine. Take margarine out of the fridge beforehand to soften at room temperature. You can also melt margarine in the microwave at the smallest power or in defrosting mode. In this case, you need to wait for it to cool down. Rub the margarine with a pinch of salt.

Drive a chicken egg into a bowl of margarine and stir to combine.

Pour in the sifted wheat flour combined with the baking powder. Add the flour in small portions, stirring the mass with a spoon. When the dough begins to gather in a lump, put it on a floured work surface and continue kneading with your hands.

It should turn out a smooth, soft dough. You don't need to add too much flour to prevent the dough from being tight. Wrap the dough in cling film and place it in the fridge for an hour.

Chop the cooled potatoes into circles. Cut the chicken meat into small cubes. Peel the bulb onions from their husks and finely chop them with a knife. So that the onion does not pinch the eyes when cutting, wash it and the knife with cold water.

Turn on the oven 180 degrees. "Dried" dough divide into two parts. Roll each of them into a layer according to the size of the cake pan. Put one part of the dough into the oiled tin.

Brush the dough with melted butter. Layer the potatoes, chicken meat and onions on top. Add salt and ground black pepper to taste.

Cover the cake with a second layer of dough and hold the edges together. In the centre, make a small opening for the steam to escape while baking the pie. Brush the pie with a whipped yolk of chicken egg. Bake the chicken and potato chicken in the oven at 180 degrees for 30 minutes. The exact time depends on your oven. Remove the chicken coop from the oven and serve. Enjoy your meal!
