Ingredients

- Margarine 10 oz
- Water 1 glass
- Sugar 1 tablespoon

Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Knead the dough. Dissolve the yeast in a glass of water with sugar.
Step 2
Chop the flour with cold margarine until it resembles fine crumbs. Then, use your hands to rub the flour and margarine together until you achieve a fine, crumbly mixture.
Step 3
Gather the mixture into a mound, make a well in the center, sprinkle with salt, and pour in the diluted yeast. Knead the dough. Place the finished dough in a plastic bag and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Step 4
For the filling, dice the raw potatoes into small cubes. Boil in 1 liter of salted water for 2 minutes (add the potatoes to the boiling water). Drain in a colander. Let cool.
Step 5
Thinly slice the chicken breast. Sauté with finely chopped onion in butter. Season with salt and pepper. Let cool.
Step 6
Divide the dough into 2 uneven pieces. Roll out the larger piece. Place the dough disc in a heavy-bottomed skillet. Layer with potatoes, then meat and onions. For extra juiciness, add thin slices of butter.
Step 7
Roll out the remaining smaller piece of dough and cover the pie with it. Seal the edges. Make a small hole in the center of the pie for steam to escape. Brush with egg yolk. Let it rest for 20 minutes.
Step 8
Bake in the oven at 390°F for 25 minutes until golden brown.
