Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheet Pie crust
- 2 tablespoon Olive oil
- 500 grams Chicken breast
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 medium Onion
- 2 medium Carrot
- 2 Celery stalks
- 1 cup Frozen peas
- 2 tablespoon Flour
- 1.5 cup Chicken broth
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Cook the chicken in the skillet until browned and cooked through, about 7-8 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Add the minced garlic and chopped onion, cooking until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the sliced carrots and chopped celery, cooking for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are just tender.
Stir in the frozen peas and cook for 2 more minutes.
Dice the cooked chicken and return it to the skillet with the vegetables.
Sprinkle flour over the chicken and vegetables, stirring to coat evenly.
Gradually mix in chicken broth and heavy cream. Add fresh thyme and stir constantly until the mixture begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Roll out one sheet of pie crust on a lightly floured surface into a circle large enough to fit in your pie plate. Place it into the pie plate and trim any excess.
Pour the chicken and vegetable filling into the pie crust.
Roll out the second sheet of pie crust and place it over the top of the filling. Trim, fold, and crimp the edges to seal.
Beat the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash, and brush it over the top of the pie crust.
Cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling.
Allow the pie to cool for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy your hearty chicken and vegetable savory pie!
