    Recipe Introduction


    Serves: 6

    List of Ingredients




    3 cups chopped cooked chicken
    1/2 cup chopped celery
    4 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
    1 (2 oz.) jar diced pimiento, drained
    1 teaspoon dehydrated onion
    1 1/4 cup mayonnaise
    2 tablespoons lemon juice
    3/4 teaspoon salt
    1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
    1 box refrigerated pie crust
    1 egg, beaten
    Combine first 9 ingredients, mix well and set aside. Unfold one pie crust and place in 9-inch round tart pan, letting excess pastry overlap sides of pan. Spread chicken filling evenly over pastry. Unfold remaining pastry and place over top of filling. Roll over top of pan with a rolling pin to trim excess pastry from edges.

    Recipe



    Decorate top of pie crust using pastry scraps. Moisten bottom of cut-outs and arrange on pastry to make design of your choice. Prick pastry with toothpick several times around design for steam to escape. Brush top of crust with beaten egg.

    Set tart pan in a larger pan to catch drippings. Bake in preheated 425F oven 35 minutes. If necessary, cover with foil halfway during baking to prevent excess browning. Remove from oven and let stand 10 minutes. Remove sides of tart pan
