Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breast
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups Chicken stock
- 0.5 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cups Frozen peas
- 1 medium, diced Carrot
- 1 sheet, thawed Frozen puff pastry
- 1 large, beaten Egg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Dice the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season them with salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add flour and whisk for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
Slowly pour in chicken stock and milk, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the mixture thickens.
Add the cooked chicken, peas, and diced carrot into the skillet. Stir well to combine, then remove from heat.
Pour the chicken filling into a 9-inch pie dish or similarly sized baking dish.
Roll the puff pastry out slightly to fit over your pie dish. Place it over the filling and trim any excess pastry. Use a fork to press the edges down for a seal.
Brush the beaten egg over the pastry for a golden finish. Cut a few small slits in the top of the pastry to allow steam to escape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
Let the pie rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious Chicken Pie for Three!
