Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas mark 6. Put the potato, sweet potato, parsnips, thyme and rosemary in a large roasting tin. Drizzle with the oil and season with black pepper. Roast for 40 minutes or until tender and golden.
2
Towards the end of the cooking time, put the gravy in a large pan. Add the chicken, cover and simmer gently over a low heat for 6-8 minutes or until the chicken is cooked. Set aside.
3
Tip half the roasted vegetables into the chicken mixture. Use a potato masher to break them down, then stir through the remaining roasted veg. Spoon into 4 individual pie dishes, then top each with a scrunched-up piece of filo pastry. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the pastry is crisp and golden. Serve with steamed green veg such as broccoli or cabbage.
