For the Filling:

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup carrots, diced
  • 1 cup celery, diced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour

  • 3 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Pastry:

  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Sauté Vegetables: In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, carrots, and celery; sauté until tender, about 5–7 minutes.
  3. Make Roux: Stir in flour and cook for 1–2 minutes to form a roux.
  4. Add Liquid: Gradually whisk in chicken broth and milk, stirring until thickened and smooth.
  5. Combine Ingredients: Add chicken, peas, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and remove from heat.
  6. Assemble Pie: Pour filling into a 9-inch pie dish. Roll puff pastry over filling, trim excess, and seal edges. Brush with egg wash.
  7. Bake: Cut slits in the pastry, then bake for 25–30 minutes until golden and bubbly. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Enhance flavor with fresh herbs like parsley or rosemary.
  • Substitute puff pastry with pie crust or biscuit topping if desired.
  • Leftovers can be reheated in the oven for a delicious meal later on.
