Chicken Pie with Oysters

Ingredients

pepper
salt

Directions

Boil the chicken (one a year old is best) until tender; line dish with nice crust (made just as you make baking-powder biscuit), put in chicken and gravy, season with pepper and salt and a little butter, put on top crust, bake one hour. Just about twenty minutes before pie is done lift up crust and put in your oysters. It is very nice without the oysters.
Some, in making chicken or meat pies, line the dish with the lower crust, and place in the oven until well " set," then fill, cover, and bake ; others, instead of lining the entire surface of the dish, line only the sides.
The garnishes for turkey and chicken are parsley, slices of lemon, fried sausage, or forced-meat balls.
