5. Grease a 33cm X 23cm oven-proof dish with butter. Line the dish
with 8-10 sheets filo pastry, brush each sheet with the melted
butter. Spoon in the chicken filling and level the surface. Cover
with another 8-10 buttered sheets of pastry. Tuck the top edges under
the bottom edges and very lightly score a diamond pattern on the top
with a sharp knife or razor blade.

6. Bake for about 45 minnutes or until the pastry is golden. Allow to
stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
