Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1 lb)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 medium carrots, diced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper; bake in a greased dish for 20-25 minutes until fully cooked.
  2. While chicken bakes, chop onion, carrots, and garlic.
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter; sauté onions for about 5 minutes until translucent. Add garlic and cook until fragrant.
  4. Sprinkle flour over the sautéed mixture; stir constantly for about 2 minutes to form a roux.
  5. Gradually whisk in chicken broth and heavy cream; simmer until thickened (about 5 minutes). Mix in baked chicken cubes, carrots, and peas.
  6. Pour filling into a baking dish; cover with pie crust. Seal edges and cut slits on top for ventilation.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
