Directions
- 1
Beat the eggs and milk in a stand mixer bowl for 1–2 minutes on medium speed.
- 2
Add the oil and beat for another 2 minutes, then stir in the salt and sugar with a spatula.
- 3
Add the flour in three batches, beating for 2 minutes after each addition until the batter is smooth.
- 4
Fold in the baking powder gently with a spatula — do not use the mixer at this stage.
- 5
Poach the chicken breast in water with the bouillon cube until fully cooked, then shred with a fork and set aside.
- 6
In a skillet, sauté the onion, garlic, and bell pepper in a drizzle of oil over medium heat until softened.
- 7
Add the shredded chicken, diced tomato, paprika, and herbs. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- 8
Remove from heat and stir in the cream cheese until the filling is creamy and well combined.
- 9
Grease and flour a 28 cm (11-inch) baking dish. Pour in half the batter, spread the filling evenly, then top with the remaining batter.
- 10
Bake in a preheated oven at 280 °C (535 °F). Once the surface begins to brown, reduce to 180 °C (355 °F) and bake until a skewer comes out clean.
💡 Chef's Tip
Let the pie rest for 10 minutes before slicing — the batter sets and cuts cleanly. The filling can be made a day ahead and refrigerated to save time on baking day.
