There are different step-by-step recipes for preparing chicken chicken. Delight your family and friends with delicious pies. Cook with love!

Let's prepare all our ingredients. (there is no salt, butter and yolk in the photo, I somehow used these products)

First knead the dough. To do this, we need to melt a pack of margarine, cool slightly (maybe not completely), add salt, stir well so that the salt dissolves, add a glass of water, there should be enough salt, I took a level teaspoon, since the flour will then be absorbed and if the salt it won’t be enough, the dough will turn out unleavened and add a little flour (it doesn’t matter how, sift it or put it with a spoon, whichever is convenient for you), mix.

add more flour, mix again, and so on until you get an elastic dough that does not stick to your hands.

After the dough is ready, we put it in the refrigerator, and we ourselves begin to make the filling. Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes of about 1 cm, maybe a little smaller depending on your preference. Why a cube... because it will be more convenient to eat it later. What you end up with is not quite a pie, but a pie that is eaten with a spoon. After the potatoes are cut, put them on the stove and cook after boiling for 2-3 minutes until half-ready, maybe until done, but then there is a risk of getting mashed potatoes as a result, it all depends on the type of potato.

While the potatoes are cooking, peel the onion and cut into small cubes and chicken fillet

After cooking, remove the potatoes, place them in a colander to drain the water, let them cool slightly, but if you don’t have the patience to wait, you can rinse them carefully under cold water, then add salt, pepper and mix the chicken fillet, onions and potatoes.

Now our filling is ready and we are taking up the old stuff again))) That is, the dough. Its mode is in two parts, one a little larger, the other a little smaller.

The larger piece we roll out first will be the bottom of our creation, so we shouldn’t roll it out too thin, it’s better to do it this way, roll it out to about 7 mm - 1 cm thick and then make the edges of the circle thinner, this way we’ll get a thick piece bottom and thin edges of the pie. The edges should hang slightly from the mold, then it will be more convenient to cover up later.

Oh, I almost forgot, I have an old, good cast iron frying pan, I just greased it with sunflower oil. You can sprinkle it with a little flour. So, after we have the first layer in shape, we roll the second one. We roll it one to one with the size of the mold so that there are no unsightly folds. It won't turn out thin either, and that's normal. Now lay out the filling carefully and evenly, don’t be alarmed if it seems like a lot of it, put it straight in a heap, that’s how it should be. (that’s why we boiled the potatoes in advance, so as not to worry that the pie wouldn’t bake!) Add a little butter on top.

When everything is ready, cover the pie with the second rolled out piece of dough, seal it and make a hole in the center about 2 cm in diameter.

Before putting Kurnik in the oven, it must be well heated... let's say somewhere around 180 degrees. let it sit for 30 minutes, then take it out and pour about 200 ml (I don’t have a big mug) of salted and peppered boiled water into it. It turns out that after half an hour of being in the hot oven, the dough formed a kind of strong saucepan, and we poured water into it (and if you have chicken broth, you can use that as well) we create juiciness. Then we put it in the oven again. I covered mine with foil, as it began to burn, and lowered the temperature (I have gas, I can’t say exactly how much, but up to about 100) and bake for another 20-30 minutes until done. 5 minutes before it’s ready, take it out, brush it with chicken yolk and let it brown.

Kurnik has been considered the king of pies since ancient times in Rus'. Many housewives are afraid to cook it, as they consider this task quite troublesome. But it’s completely in vain, because if you know all the intricacies of preparing the pie dough and filling, then building a chicken pot is not so difficult.

Principles of dough preparation

In order for the chicken to turn out, it is important to know how to knead the dough correctly:

  • To prepare the dough, you should take only premium wheat flour; the better the quality, the higher the result will be. The flour must be sifted to eliminate any random juice or lumps.
  • The yeast dough will need to be left to ripen in a warm place, without drafts.

  • What products are needed to knead the dough? These are water, milk, kefir and other liquids; butter, margarine and other fats; eggs; baking powder (for non-yeast dough), can be replaced with soda, quenched acid or kefir.

Filling for chicken: what could it be?

For this pie, the filling is made from raw ingredients. The classic recipe calls for chicken, it's better to take fillet, which cooks quickly and goes well with other products. Also often the main filling of this pie is potatoes. The potato tubers are finely chopped so that they are thoroughly baked during cooking. Additionally use:

Kurnik recipe with chicken and potatoes

Ingredients:

  • kefir – 200 ml;
  • butter – 150 g;
  • wheat flour – 600 g;
  • salt and soda 0.5 tsp.

For the filling prepare:

  • chicken fillet – 0.5 kg;
  • potato tubers – 3-4 pcs.;
  • onion;
  • butter – 30 g;
  • pepper and salt.

All ingredients for preparing the filling should be finely chopped so that they are well baked

Step by step recipe:

  1. Remove kefir from the refrigerator in advance; it should be at room temperature. It is not recommended to use cold fermented milk products for kneading dough.
  2. Pour salt into kefir and add soda, mix everything.
  3. It is better to use melted butter at room temperature. Add it to kefir.
  4. Now gradually add flour, while constantly stirring the dough with a spoon. When all the flour has been added, put the dough on the table and begin to knead the elastic mass.
  5. After kneading the dough, experienced housewives recommend letting it “rest” for about 15 minutes, covering it with a clean towel or cling film so that the crust does not dry out.
  6. In the meantime, you can start filling. Chicken fillet should be cut into small cubes or thin strips. Sprinkle with spices, mix and leave to marinate a little.
  7. We peel the onion and also finely chop it so that it is less noticeable and less crunchy in the finished pie. We send him to the chicken.
  8. We peel the potatoes, cut them into thin slices and also send them to

meat, sprinkle salt and pepper on top and stir.

  1. You need to separate 1/3 from a piece of dough and set it aside. Roll out the remaining dough into a flat cake and transfer it to a prepared baking dish, line the bottom with dough and make sides with your fingers.
  2. Now add the filling.
  3. Cut a piece of butter into thin slices and place it on top of the filling, this will allow the minced meat to be juicy.
  4. Roll out the remaining piece of dough and cover the pie with it, connecting the bottom and top cake.
  5. Don’t forget to make small holes in the top layer of dough, otherwise when baking, due to the release of juice from raw ingredients, the pie will simply fall apart at the seams.
  6. Mix the egg yolk with 1/2 cup milk or water and brush the kurnik before cooking.
  7. Bake the pie in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 50 minutes.

  • You can make them round by simply pulling the edges of the dough to the top and pinching them lightly.
  • Square, folding the opposite edges of the dough like an envelope.
  • Or triangles. To get a triangular shape, you need to similarly tighten the edges and then slightly flatten them.

Number of servings: 8.

Cooking time: 180 minutes.

Calorie content: 207.1 kcal per 100 g.

Ingredients:

  • 250 gr. soft margarine;
  • 0.5 liters of fresh milk;
  • 1 tbsp. sweet sand;
  • 1 tsp table salt;
  • 2 pcs. fresh eggs;
  • 11 gr. dry yeast;
  • 1 kg of wheat flour;
  • 500-800 gr. chicken fillet;
  • 400-600 gr. fresh champignons;
  • 1-2 onions;
  • 3-4 tbsp. homemade mayonnaise;
  • 50 gr. butter;
  • 6-8 potato tubers;
  • 0.5 tbsp. broth;
  • 1-2 pinches of salt and black pepper (for filling).

Cooking process:

  1. At the beginning of cooking, make the yeast dough. Heat the milk to a temperature of 38 degrees so that it is moderately warm. We dilute yeast, sugar, and salt in milk. Also add half the melted margarine for baking. Cover the resulting dough with a napkin and move it to a warm place without drafts for a quarter of an hour.

    Yeast cannot be diluted in hot milk, because... Yeast bacteria will be killed by high temperature.

  2. When the yeast rises, beat in the eggs, the remaining margarine, and sift the flour. Mix all the ingredients with a spoon, then switch to manual kneading. Leave the homogeneous elastic dough to rise for an hour, covering it with a bowl.
  3. While the yeast dough is ripening, prepare the filling. We thoroughly rinse the mushrooms, freshen the stem cut, and clean the cap. Cut the champignons into slices or large cubes. Peel the onion and finely chop it into cubes. Place the onion in a hot frying pan with vegetable oil and fry, stirring, until transparent and soft. Add mushrooms to the frying pan, stir, salt and pepper. Fry the champignons until all the mushroom juice has completely evaporated. Place the contents of the pan on a plate to cool.
  4. Peel the potato tubers, rinse and dry them with a napkin. Cut the potatoes into thin circles.

    To prevent the potatoes from darkening before adding them to the pie, you can add a small amount of water to them. Dry thoroughly before putting into the pie.

  5. Rinse the chicken fillet, dry it, cut into medium cubes.
  6. Knead the risen dough and divide it into 2 parts. Roll out one half with a diameter larger than the shape to create high sides. Place a layer of dough in a fireproof mold greased with vegetable oil and form sides from the dough.
  7. Now generously grease the base with mayonnaise, place half of the potato slices on top, salt and pepper to taste. For juiciness, occasionally spread small pieces of butter over the potatoes.
  8. Place a layer of cooled fried champignons on top. Cover the mushrooms with a layer of chopped raw chicken, which we season with salt and pepper.
  9. Lay out the remaining potatoes, add salt, and draw a thin mayonnaise mesh on the surface.
  10. Roll out the rest of the dough so that the diameter is equal to the diameter of the mold. Cover the filling with dough and seal the edges well. Make a hole in the center of the pie and pour in the broth.
  11. Brush the kurnik pie with egg yolk, place it in an oven preheated to 180-200 degrees, and bake for 2-2.5 hours.
  12. All the liquid from the chicken may not evaporate after baking, so after the oven we let the cake brew for another 30-50 minutes.

They also prepare small portions of chicken stuffed with potatoes, onions and chicken. They are formed in the form of bags or triangles. Holes are made in the center of each product into which a spoonful of chicken broth is poured. These pies are convenient to take with you on the road or give to children at school for a snack.
