Prepare the pastry dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour and a pinch of salt. Cut in the cold, cubed butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces of butter remaining. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and 2 tablespoons of ice water. Gradually add this to the flour mixture, mixing until the dough just comes together. Add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed. Do not overmix. Divide the dough in half, flatten each half into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Prepare the filling: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sautรฉ until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. In a large bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, chopped hearts of palm, chopped olives, sautรฉed onion and garlic mixture, and heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed and the chicken is coated in the creamy mixture.

Assemble the empadรฃo: Preheat your oven to 190ยฐC (375ยฐF). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or a similar-sized round baking dish. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disc of dough into a circle large enough to line the bottom and sides of the prepared dish. Carefully transfer the dough to the dish, pressing it gently into the bottom and up the sides. Pour the chicken filling evenly into the pastry-lined dish. Roll out the second disc of dough into a circle for the top crust. Place it over the filling and crimp the edges of the top and bottom crusts together to seal. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape. Brush the top crust evenly with the beaten egg wash for a golden finish.
โฑ๏ธ 15 minutes - 4
Bake the empadรฃo: Place the assembled pie on a baking sheet (to catch any drips) and bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, you can loosely tent it with aluminum foil. Once baked, remove from the oven and let it rest for at least 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
