Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1.5 pounds Chicken breasts (cut into 1-inch cubes)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 medium Yellow onion (diced)
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
• 1 cup Carrots (peeled and diced)
• 1 cup Celery (diced)
• 1 cup Frozen peas
• 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
• 2.5 cups Chicken broth
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 teaspoon Thyme (dried)
• 2 tablespoons Parsley (chopped, fresh)
• 1 sheet Prepared pie crust
• 1 large Egg (beaten, for egg wash)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a large, oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter and olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Season the cubed chicken with salt and black pepper, then add it to the pot. Sear the chicken for 4-5 minutes, or until it is lightly browned but not fully cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.

Step 4

In the same pot, add the diced onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.

Step 5

Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir constantly for 1-2 minutes to create a roux. This will help thicken the filling.

Step 6

Gradually add the chicken broth while stirring to prevent lumps from forming. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

Step 7

Stir in the heavy cream, thyme, and frozen peas. Add the seared chicken back into the pot and simmer the mixture for 5 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the filling has thickened slightly. Turn off the heat and stir in the chopped parsley.

Step 8

Unroll the prepared pie crust and carefully place it over the top of the pot, tucking in any excess around the edges. Use a sharp knife to cut a few small slits in the crust to allow steam to escape.

Step 9

Brush the pie crust with the beaten egg to give it a golden, shiny finish.

Step 10

Transfer the pot to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and flaky.

Step 11

Remove the pot from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Scoop into bowls and enjoy your warm, hearty one-pot chicken pot pie!
