Chicken stuffed casserole bread

I love breads a lot and escpecially stuffed one. Our #Breadbakers group has challeged us to make a stuffed bread hosted by jenni. I was planning to make a sandwich bread which I make occasionally at home. when I filled the bread tin  found some dough left behind. An idea flashed in my mind,why don't I try a casserole bread?

 This will resemble a pie or quinche but it is made of a bread dough. Sooo yummy and  delicious bread loved by my kids a lot.......!!!!!!!!!!!

Add dry red chillies onion saute well add in chicken pieces saute till chicken is half done. Add in tomatoes and saute till its cooked well. Now add water and salt cook till its half done. Add in chettinad masala powder and cook for some more time till chicken cooks well and water dries completely. Add paneer(cottagecheese) crumbled into the chicken mixture and mix well and cool them completely.

Casserole bread:

Slightly knead the risen dough in a floured surface and seperate them into 2 parts. Grease a casserole with butter and fill the dish with half part of the dough.Spread them to close the surface with a cavity in center. Now fill in the cooled mixture and close them completely with another part of the dough.
