Although there are many savory dinner pies that are made with chicken, beef and pork, Charlie Bigham's offers a fish pie alternative made with a combination of cod, salmon and smoked haddock. The included fish is accented with a parsley sauce, mashed potato and a topping of crunchy breadcrumbs.
When it comes time to prepare the product, consumers are instructed to remove the packaging film, but leave the fish pie in its oven-safe wooden tray.
Charlie Bigham's Fish Pie received a Great Taste Award in 2017. To bring out the best flavors of the product, Charlie Bigham's suggests serving the dish with a side like garden peas and minted butter, as well as a Italian white wine, a sparkling white wine or even a champagne.
