Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 1/3 cup butter
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
- 1/4 cup dry white wine or additional chicken broth
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups frozen peas and carrots or mixed vegetables
- 2 cups diced or shredded chicken
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400℉.
- Let the puff pastry thaw on the counter while preparing the filling.
- Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Sauté the diced onion for 2-3 minutes until softened.
- Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir, cooking for 30-60 seconds.
- Slowly pour in the chicken broth while stirring constantly; the mixture will thicken initially and then thin out.
- Add white wine (or more chicken broth) and milk; bring the mixture to a boil.
- Remove from heat; stir in garlic powder, pepper, salt, mixed vegetables, and shredded chicken.
- Pour the chicken mixture into a pie plate.
- In a bowl, whisk the egg yolk with water to create an egg wash; set aside.
- Unroll the puff pastry over the filling, trimming and crimping the edges if desired.
- Cut vent holes into the puff pastry using a sharp knife.
- Brush the puff pastry with the egg wash.
- Place the pie in the oven, using a rimmed sheet pan below to catch any spills.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until the pastry is golden brown and filling is bubbly, checking for doneness around 20 minutes.
- Let the pie set for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Feel free to substitute any frozen vegetables you like for a personal touch.
Check the pie halfway through baking and cover with foil if it browns too quickly.
Letting it rest after baking allows for easier slicing.
