If you love chicken and you love pies, this chicken pot pie is the best thing that will happen to your cooking routine.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast (cut into pieces)
- 1/2 cup sliced celery
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup sliced carrots
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup frozen peas
- 1 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
- 2 unbaked pie crusts
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Set the oven to 425 F degrees and place an oven rack on the bottom part of the oven.
Set the stove to medium heat and melt the butter. Combine it with the celery, chicken, pepper, garlic powder, carrots, onion, thyme leaves. Cook the mixture for 8 to 10 minutes, while also mixing.
Next, include the flour. Start adding the cream very slowly and then pour in the chicken broth. Wait for the mix to start boiling and it should become thick in 3 to 4 minutes.
Take it off the stove and add the flat-leaf parsley together with the peas. Leave it on the side to cool down for half an hour.
In the meantime prepare a 9-inch plate and the crusts. Put one pie crust on the bottom, and add the filling. Cover it with the second pie crust. Cut small parts of the top or poke it with a fork.
Place the chicken pot pie in the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
