Ingredients

Scale

For the Filling:

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cubed
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 medium carrots, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas
  • 1/2 cup frozen corn
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream or milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

For the Crust:

  • 1 sheet of store-bought or homemade pie crust (or puff pastry, if preferred)
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Filling: In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add cubed chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook until golden and cooked through. Remove chicken and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add onions, garlic, carrots, and celery. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Stir in flour, cooking for 1-2 minutes until combined.
  • Gradually add chicken broth, stirring constantly, until smooth. Stir in cream, thyme, and rosemary. Let it simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.
  • Add cooked chicken, peas, and corn to the sauce, stirring until well combined. Season to taste.
  • Assemble the Pot Pie: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pour filling into a pie dish. Roll out the pie crust and place it over the filling. Trim and crimp the edges as desired. Brush the crust with beaten egg for a golden finish and cut small slits in the crust for steam to escape.
  • Bake: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Let it cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can use a mix of cream and milk.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like potatoes or green beans.
