Oil your pie tin, I just give mine a light spray with oil, and line with a sheet of puff pastry and chuck in the oven while its pre-heating to 180*c.
Cut up your onion and bacon and fry it up in a pan.

Finished! :D
The great thing with this pie is as long as you have a can of soup and some pastry you can substitute pretty much any leftovers you have in the fridge. In this one I also added some sour cream that needed using and an extra can of corn, because I love it.
You could make the same pie and substitute chicken with steak or leftover roast lamb, pork, or beef. Just change out chicken soup for a similar soup.
Hope you enjoy.
