Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked chicken breast, shredded
- 2 cups Frozen mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, green beans, and corn)
- 1 small Yellow onion, finely diced
- 1.5 cups Fat-free chicken broth
- 1 cup Low-fat milk (1%)
- 0.25 cup Plain all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 tube Reduced-fat crescent roll dough
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the diced onion for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent.
Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir well to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually add the chicken broth while whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Add the milk and stir until the mixture thickens into a creamy consistency, about 3-5 minutes.
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and dried thyme.
Stir in the shredded chicken and frozen vegetables. Mix well to combine, and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Transfer the chicken and vegetable mixture into a 9-inch pie dish, spreading it out evenly.
Unroll the reduced-fat crescent roll dough and lay it over the filling, pinching the edges to fit the dish. Use a sharp knife to make a few small slits in the dough to allow steam to escape.
Place the pie dish on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let the pot pie cool for 5 minutes before serving. Portion into 6 servings and enjoy!
