Recipe:

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, diced
  • 1 cup frozen peas and carrots, thawed
  • 1/2 cup frozen corn, thawed
  • 1/2 cup diced potatoes, cooked
  • 1/4 cup diced onion
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 sheets of puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Filling:
    • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent.
    • Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, until the mixture is golden and bubbly.
    • Gradually add the chicken broth and milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens.
    • Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
    • Stir in the cooked chicken, peas and carrots, corn, and diced potatoes. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, until everything is heated through and well combined.
  2. Prepare the Puff Pastry:
    • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
    • Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Use a round cutter to cut circles that will fit into your muffin tin as the base and top crusts.
    • Place the larger circles into the greased muffin tin, pressing gently to fit.
  3. Assemble the Mini Pot Pies:
    • Spoon the chicken and vegetable filling into each puff pastry-lined muffin cup.
    • Place a smaller puff pastry circle on each pie, pressing the edges to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges.
    • Brush the tops with the beaten egg.
  4. Bake:
    • Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and crispy.
    • Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before removing from the muffin tin.
  5. Serve:
    • Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
    • Enjoy your Mini Chicken Pot Pies warm, and savor the comforting flavors in every bite!
