Chicken Bump Pie

Chicken Bump Pie

"Here is a recipe for chicken “bump” pie, a simple chicken pie you’ll love. “Kvrga” loosely translates to a “bump,” the kind you get when you hit your head against the wall or trip over a small stool. Or any sort of bump really. It’s a great nickname for a man you don’t want to meet in dark. One time my relatives were getting scammed out of money until they threatened to get Kvrga involved. It didn’t matter they didn’t know Kvrga, just the mention of him solved a pretty big problem. My best guess is the “bump” in this pie’s name came from the shape of chicken parts. As they rise from the flour mixture there is a subconscious association of knuckles or bumps."
