Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
16 rashers bacon
8 skinless boneless chicken breasts
2 6 oz. ham steaks -- fat removed
1/2 pound cranberry sauce
PORK SAUSAGE LAYER
1 onion -- finely chopped
2 ounces pistachio nuts
2 ounces dried cranberries
salt and pepper
2 pounds bulk sausage
DRESSING LAYER
4 ounces fine dry breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons parsley -- chopped
1 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon marjoram
zest of 1 lemon
1 egg
1 tablespoon olive oil
Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line the base of a buttered 9 inch
spring-form pan with parchment paper.
Rub the rashers with the back of a knife on your chopping board to
stretch them, then line the base and sides of the pan with rashers. Let
some hang over the edge of the pan.
Beat all of the chicken breasts between cling film until about doubled
in size. Use 6 of them to line the base and sides of the pan allowing some
to hang over the edge. Mix the pork sausage ingredients and press half of
it onto the chicken layer in base of the pan. Mix breadcrumbs and
seasonings. Lightly beat the egg and olive oil together and stir into the
crumbs until the mixture binds together.
Cut the ham into strips and lay half over the sausage layer in the tin.
Layer the dressing on top of this then the rest of the ham strips. Press
down well before adding the remaining sausage meat and smoothing the top.
Fold in the overhanging chicken and layer the remaining two chicken
breasts over the top before folding over the overhanging bacon.
Cover with foil and bake in the center of the oven for about 2 hours,
check that the juices are clear when tested with a needle.
Put a plate on top of the pie and add weights to press the pie as it
cools. Cool completely and chill. Before serving decorate the top with the
cranberry sauce, scattering a few frozen cranberries to brighten the color
and flavor. Serve cold but not chilled. Serves a dozen guests easily.
