Method

  1. Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. Put the chicken pie filling in a saucepan and gently reheat. Stir in the cream cheese and spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring, until the spinach has wilted into the sauce. Stir in the butter beans, then divide the mixture equally among the 4 mini pie dishes.
  2. Brush the filo sheets with a little butter, then loosely scrunch and put one on top of the filling in each pie dish, so you can see a little of it coming through. Brush with any leftover butter and bake for 20 minutes or until the filo is crisp. Serve straightaway.
