Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 medium carrots
- 2 celery stalks
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 2 garlic cloves
- 500 milliliters chicken broth
- 150 milliliters heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 double crust pie crust dough
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F).
Dice the chicken breast into small bite-sized pieces.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Dice the carrots and celery, finely chop the onion, and mince the garlic cloves. Add the carrots, celery, onion, and garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables are softened.
Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir well to coat.
Gradually pour in the chicken broth and stir continuously to avoid lumps. Add the heavy cream, salt, black pepper, thyme, and parsley. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes until it thickens.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to combine. Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
Roll out the pie crust dough into a large circle to fit your pie dish. Line the bottom of the pie dish with one crust, allowing the excess to hang over the edges.
Pour the chicken filling into the prepared pie crust in the dish.
Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the top of the filling. Fold the excess edges under and crimp to seal. Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
Beat the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to make an egg wash. Brush the top crust with the egg wash.
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
Let the pie cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy a deliciously comforting soy-free chicken pie with your family.
