I was at Muritala Mohammed international airport recently and bought chicken pies at Eddie burger kings stand . One small pie went for N500. I was like whaaaaaaat. But one thing I liked about it was that just two ingredients was used for the inside sauce.
Spiralled chicken, diced carrots with enough curry. Yummy and soft.
I knew I will make mine at a free time. And it was really yummy. I pounded my chicken because I didn't know how they came about their spiralized chicken.
