There are recipes you share, and recipes you don't.

Our chicken hand pies fall firmly into the second category. What we will tell you is this — the filling is a slow, careful thing. A rich, creamy sauce, a splash of something French, a mustard that knows its place, herbs that earned their way in, and one ingredient we'll never quite name that gives the whole thing an depth that people always notice but can never quite identify.

The pastry is golden. The filling is generous. The secrets are ours.

Available with or without seasonal vegetables. Baked fresh in our Bloomfield Hills kitchen and freezer friendly — simply reheat at 375°F for 20-25 minutes until golden and piping hot.

Some things are just better homemade. This is one of them.
