Chicken Pot Pie

Ingredients

• •2 chicken breasts, cooked and diced
• •1 onion, diced
• •2 carrots, diced
• •1 cup frozen peas
• •1/3 cup flour
• •2 cups chicken broth
• •1 cup milk
• •1 tsp fresh thyme
• •2 pie crusts
• •1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Steps

1. 1.Sauté the onion and carrots until softened.
2. 2.Sprinkle in the flour and cook for 1 minute to eliminate the raw flour taste, then whisk in the chicken broth and milk until thickened.
3. 3.Stir in the cooked chicken, peas, and thyme, then let the filling cool for 15-20 minutes - hot filling melts the bottom crust before it bakes, leading to a soggy bottom.
4. 4.Pour the cooled filling into a pie crust-lined dish and top with the second crust, sealing the edges and brushing with the beaten egg.
5. 5.Bake at 400°F for 30-35 minutes until the crust is deeply golden.
