Preheat the oven to gas 6,
200°C, 180°C fan. Using a fork, shred the chicken in the
casserole and drain away any excess juice. Mix the ricotta
with the chicken mixture and season with plenty of freshly
ground black pepper.
-
Roll the pastry out onto a
lightly floured board until large enough to cut out a
circle (about 30cm), you can use a large plate as a
template.
-
Transfer the pastry to a lined
baking tray and pile the chicken and ricotta mixture in
the middle, leaving a 3cm edge. Fold the edges in to
create a crust and brush with egg wash. Bake for 30 mins
until the pastry is golden brown. Remove from the oven and
top with the fresh tarragon leaves to serve.
