1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
1 1/2 pounds chicken
1 egg
3 tablespoons white wine
1/8 cup dates, pitted and chopped

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup chicken broth

1
Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces. In a saucepan, boil chicken with chicken broth, over low heat, for about 1 hour or until done. Add water, if necessary, to cover chicken while cooking. Drain and reserve the broth, and place cooked chicken in a large bowl.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
3
Add egg, white wine and 1 cup of chicken stock to the cooked chicken. Add dates, ground almonds and cheese, then toss to mix. Add salt, black and white pepper, cloves, ginger, mace and cinnamon. Mix spices in. Don't worry if the filling seems wet, it will thicken as it cooks.
