In a bowl mix together 4 cups flour, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp sugar, 2 tbsp milk powder, 1 tbsp yeast, 4 tbsp oil and 1 egg, knead to a medium soft dough with slightly warm water, leave to rise for 1 hour.
Ingredients for chicken filling

Black pepper 1 tsp
chopped parsley leaves leaves 2 tb
Allspice 1 tsp

Sesame seeds as required
Heat 2 tbsp butter fry onion till soft then add 2 tbsp flour with 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp All spice powder....add the milk, cook till thick, mix in the shredded chicken add parsley leaves, remove and cool completely. Now divide the dough into two or three parts depending on what size loaves of chicken bread you want. Roll the dough to a rectangular shape, snip the sides with scissors or a knife, put filling in the centre and fold each side so they overlap each other (like a braid) the filling will show slightly but that's ok, brush top with beaten egg, sprinkle sesame seeds and bake on 200 degree C for 25 minutes or so.
Right after taking out of the oven apply butter well on the bread and let it rest covered with a cloth for 2-3 min to soften the bread completely.
