Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 2 medium carrots, peeled and diced
• 2 stalks celery stalks, diced
• 0.333 cup all-purpose flour
• 3 cups chicken broth
• 1 cup whole milk
• 3 cups cooked chicken, shredded or cubed
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 puff pastry sheets, thawed
• 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 4

Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir well to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 5

Gradually pour in the chicken broth while stirring constantly to avoid lumps.

Step 6

Stir in the milk. Simmer the mixture for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens.

Step 7

Add the cooked chicken, frozen peas, parsley, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine and remove from heat.

Step 8

Transfer the filling to a 9-inch round deep-dish pie dish.

Step 9

Roll out the puff pastry sheets, if needed, to fit over the top of the pie dish. Lay the pastry sheet over the filling, trimming any excess dough and pressing the edges to seal.

Step 10

Cut small slits in the pastry to allow steam to escape during baking.

Step 11

Brush the pastry with the beaten egg for a golden, shiny finish.

Step 12

Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.

Step 13

Remove from the oven and let the pot pie cool slightly before serving.
