Ingredients
1 1⁄2 pound Chicken Breast (boneless, skinless, chopped)1 tablespoon Olive Oil
4 whole Bacon Slices (chopped)
5 1⁄4 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
1 whole Onion (diced)
3 whole Carrots (diced)
1⁄2 cup Flour
1 cup Milk
2 cups Chicken Broth
1 cup Peas (frozen)
1 teaspoon Salt
1⁄2 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
4 whole Puff Pastry (sheets)
1 whole Egg (beatened)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Add the oil to a large pot over high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the chicken, and stir until cooked through, about 7 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a bowl.
- Melt butter in the same pot. Add the onions and carrots and stir until softened, about 8 minutes.
- Add the flour, stirring to combine. Slowly add the milk and chicken broth, alternating between the two, stirring continuously and bringing to a boil. Add the cooked chicken, peas, salt, and pepper, and stir until thoroughly mixed.
- In a small pan add bacon and cooked until soft and slightly crisp. Drain on paper towel lined plate then add to the chicken mixture and mix well. Let filling cool.
- Lay out puff pastry sheets and use a small 6-inch bowl to cut circles out of it. Place dough circles in a nonstick muffin tin and fill with pot pie mixture. Using remaining puff pastry, cut ⅛-inch strips of dough, and make a lattice top for each muffin cup. Brush the lattice tops with the egg.
- Bake for 15 minutes, until golden brown. Enjoy!
