Chicken Pot Pie with Puff Pastry

Ingredients

  • 1 pkg (17 to 18 oz) frozen puff pastry, thawed according to package directions
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 Tbsp water
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cups (chopped) yellow onion
  • 1 1/4 cups thin chopped celery
  • 1 1/4 cups peeled and chopped carrots
  • 6 oz. mushrooms, sliced
  • 5 Tbsp butter, cut into pieces
  • 1 Tbsp minced garlic
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting puff pastry
  • 1 (15 oz) can low-sodium chicken broth, then more to thin as desired
  • 1 3/4 cups whole milk
  • 2 tsp minced fresh thyme
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 3 1/2 cups cooked shredded chicken (preferably rotisserie or bone-in cooked chicken)
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen petite peas
  • 1/3 cup grated (1.5 oz) parmesan cheese
  • 3 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley, plus more for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Unfold puff pastry onto a lightly floured surface, sprinkle top with a little flour then spread evenly over top.
  • Cut puff pastry into 1-inch squares. Transfer to a 18 by 13-inch baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl whisk together egg with the 1 Tbsp water until well blended. Light brush some of the egg mixture over top of puff pastry then spread pieces out even.
  • Bake in preheated oven until nicely puffed and richly golden brown, about 11 to 15 minutes.
  • While puff pastry is baking prepare filling. In a 12-inch skillet heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Add onions, celery, carrots, mushrooms and saute tossing only occasionally (about every 2 to 3 minutes so mushrooms and veggies brown a little), cooking until veggies soften, about 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Add butter and garlic and saute 1 minutes. Sprinkle in flour, then cook tossing constantly 1 minute.
  • Reduce heat to medium, while whisking slowly pour in chicken broth then milk. Add thyme and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let cook until thickened, while stirring.
  • Reduce heat low stir in chicken. Let heat for a few minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in peas, parmesan and parsley and warm through.
  • Thin mixture with more chicken broth as desired (or milk). Serve warm in bowls and top with puff pastry pieces garnished with a little more parsley.
