Chicken Pot Pie Filling
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup chopped yellow onions
- 2 teaspoons very finely chopped garlic
- 1 cup finely chopped carrots
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 pound chopped grilled chicken
- 1 cup fat-free milk
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon ground sage
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook until soft.
- 2. Add the carrots, peas, and flour and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring constantly.
- 3. Add the broth, reduce the heat to low, and cook for 5 to 10 minutes until the liquid is reduced by half.
- 4. Add the chopped chicken, milk, thyme, rosemary, sage, pepper, and salt and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes or until the mixture is thickened. Keep warm until ready to use, or cool quickly and keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days for future use.
Chef Tips:
- You can cook the potatoes in the microwave while you prepare the filling for a lightning-fast meal.
- To save on prep time, you can use a frozen peas and carrots blend or your favorite frozen mixed vegetable blend. Your local store may also carry frozen diced onions.
- Make a large batch of the chicken pot pie filling and freeze it for individual pot pies or future lunches.
- If you cannot find each dried herb individually, try a salt-free poultry seasoning mix.
