Tourtiere is most often made with half ground beef and half ground pork. I prefer to make mine with half ground beef and half ground chicken to cut down on fat and calories as well as reduce red meat intake. However, I don't recommend using all ground chicken as I believe this would negatively impact the flavor and texture of the tourtiere.
