How to Make Hot Chicken Salad Pot Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Position a rack in the middle of the oven. Have ready a 9x2 inch round baking dish or glass pie dish.
  2. **Prepare the Filling:** In a large bowl, gently combine all filling ingredients (see ingredient list below) ensuring the chicken is evenly coated with mayonnaise.
  3. Spoon the filling into the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly.
  4. **Prepare the Phyllo Topping:** Lay out the phyllo pastry sheets in a stack and immediately cover them completely with a damp dish towel to prevent drying.
  5. Spread one phyllo sheet on a clean surface. Lightly brush with melted butter and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
  6. Crumple the phyllo sheet into a loose ball. Place the phyllo ball on top of the filling in the baking dish.
  7. Repeat steps 5 & 6 with the remaining phyllo sheets, arranging the bundles to cover the filling. You should have 6 phyllo bundles in total.
  8. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the phyllo topping is golden brown and the filling is heated through. The short baking time helps keep the celery crisp.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving. Use a spoon to serve the filling and one phyllo bundle per serving.
