Chicken Pastel is a Filipino style chicken dish cooked in creamy sauce. It was only my second time to cook chicken pastel and I find this dish similar when you cook Chicken cook in Pineapple or Pininyahang manok.
Originally, a sausage is included in this particular dish but I omitted it and it's still delicious.
