Cook Time

Cook time for this recipe is about 1 hour. This includes preheating the oven and baking the pot pie for 45 minutes.

Ingredients

For the crust:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
1/2 cup ice-cold water

For the filling:

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, diced
2 carrots, peeled and diced
2 celery stalks, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried sage
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken stock
1 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

To prepare the crust: In a large bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the water and mix until a dough forms. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

To prepare the filling: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, celery, garlic, thyme, oregano, sage, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes.

Add the chicken and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Slowly add the chicken stock, stirring continuously. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Add the peas and cream and cook for another 5 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or non-stick spray. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface. Place the dough into the pie dish and trim the edges. Pour the filling into the dish. Roll out the remaining dough and place it over the top of the filling. Trim the edges and crimp as desired. Brush the top of the crust with a beaten egg. Cut a few slits in the top of the crust to allow steam to escape.

Bake the pot pie for 45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
