Ingredients
  • 2 Tablespoons butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small sweet onion, diced
  • ⅔ cup frozen corn kernels
  • 1 small bag frozen peas and carrots
  • ⅓ cup flour
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • ¾ cup milk (any variety will work!)
  • ½ tsp dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 store-bought rotisserie chicken
  • 1 sheet puff pastry
  • 1 large egg whisked with 1 Tablespoon water
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease 4 small ramekins and set aside onto large baking sheet. Pull meat off of rotisserie chicken and roughly chop into bite sized pieces.
  2. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat then add garlic, onion, corn, and peas & carrots. Cook until the onion is softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in flour, making sure to coat well. Cook until flour is slightly browned, about 1 minute.
  3. Add chicken broth, milk, and thyme. Stir and continue to cook until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken and add salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Remove from heat and spoon into the ramekins. Cut the puff pastry to fit the ramekins and place on top of each pot pie. Cut a vent in the top of each, then brush with egg wash.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes or until crust is golden-brown. After removing from oven, let cool for 5-10 minutes before enjoying.
