How to Make Low Fat Chicken Pot Pie With Puff Pastry

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large Dutch oven, bring 2 cups of chicken broth to a boil.
  3. Add 1 cup frozen peas, 1/2 cup chopped carrots, 1/2 cup chopped celery, 1/4 cup chopped onion, and 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme.
  4. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 6 minutes.
  5. Add 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken breast.
  6. Cook for 5 minutes, or until heated through.
  7. Remove chicken and vegetables from broth with a slotted spoon and set aside in a large bowl.
  8. Increase heat to medium. Lightly spoon 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour into a measuring cup, leveling with a knife.
  9. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of the measured flour with 1 1/2 cups of milk until smooth.
  10. Add the milk mixture to the broth in the Dutch oven. Cook for 5 minutes, or until thickened, stirring frequently.
  11. Stir in the reserved chicken and vegetables, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  12. Lightly grease an 11x7 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  13. Spoon the chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  14. On a lightly floured surface (using the remaining 1 tablespoon of flour), roll out 1 sheet (13x9 inches) of puff pastry.
  15. Place the puff pastry over the chicken mixture, pressing to seal the edges of the dish.
  16. Cut several slits in the puff pastry to allow steam to escape. Lightly coat the pastry with cooking spray.
  17. Place the baking dish on a foil-lined baking sheet.
  18. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 16-18 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
