• 1 pinch ground cloves
• ½ teaspoon ground mace
• 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 3 tablespoons chicken broth
• 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed

• 4 purple plums - pitted, peeled and chopped

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Press the puff pastry sheet into an 8-inch round or square pan.

Step 2

Bake in the preheated oven until the bottom of the pastry is very lightly browned, about 10 minutes.

Step 3

Mix together the chicken, 4 chopped plums, chicken broth, mace, cinnamon, and cloves in a bowl, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon the mixture over the partially-baked crust, and arrange slices of 2 plums over the top. Drizzle the pie with melted butter, and sprinkle with brown sugar.

Step 4

Bake the pie in the oven until the crust is golden brown and the plum slices have caramelized, about 40 minutes.
