Ingredients:

1 5 pound stewing hen, cut up
5 cup water
1 small onion
1/2 tsp salt
1 recipe pastry
2 medium potatoes, cooked and cubed
2 ribs celery
2 carrots

Instructions:

Simmer chicken in water with onion, celery, carrots and salt until
tender (about 3 hours). Remove chicken from bones and cut in cubes,
discarding the skin. Strain broth and measure, adding water to make 3
cups. Thicken broth with 4 Tablespoons flour mixed with 1/4 cup
water. Adjust seasonings with a dash of white pepper and more salt if
necessary. Add chicken, carrots (cubed) and cubed potatoes. Spoon
into 6 individual casserole dishes or a 2-quart casserole. Roll
pastry about 1/4-inch thick and top the casserole, sealing the edges.
Make several slashes in the pastry to allow the steam to escape. Bake
in a hot oven (400 degrees F.) for about 30 minutes or until golden
brown. Helpful Hints: Biscuit dough (rolled thin) or individual
biscuits may be used for the topping. I also add defrosted frozen
peas, to add more color.

Chicken is ideal
for weight loss
and dieting

Healthy eating is far better than strict dieting, and weight loss achieved by a change of lifestyle lasts far longer than 'faddy' diets that are difficult to adopt for long periods.

Cooking more low fat chicken can enable you to lose weight gradually as part of a a controlled and healthy diet.
