Preparation time:

And this is how it is done:
First, melt the butter in a pan. Peel and finely chop the onions, then fry them in butter. Sauté them on medium-high heat until they get a nice golden color.
Place in a large pot and bring the chicken broth to a boil. Drain and cut the chicken breasts into large pieces – then add them to the stock and simmer until the meat is tender, which should be about 20 minutes. Now remove the meat from the liquid with a slotted spoon and set both aside for now.
Peel the potatoes and grate them finely. Place the mashed potatoes on a clean cotton tea towel and squeeze well to extract the juice. Place the dried potatoes in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add some chicken broth to make it the consistency of oatmeal.
Grease a large pan with butter and pour half of the potato mixture. Now layer the onions on top, followed by the chicken breast. Place the remaining potato mixture on top as a topping.
Heat the oven to 180 degrees and let the pan bake for an hour. Pour some chicken broth over the ingredients to keep the dish from drying out. That’s it – Rappie Pie is ready!
