How to Make No Time Chicken Pot Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Sauté 1 medium onion, chopped, until translucent (about 5 minutes).
  3. Add 1 cup chopped carrots, 1 cup chopped celery, 1/2 cup chopped parsnips, and 1 cup sliced mushrooms. Cook until softened and mushrooms have released their liquid (about 8-10 minutes).
  4. Push the vegetable mixture to one side of the pan. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the empty space.
  5. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour until smooth. Gradually whisk in 2 cups of milk until smooth and thickened.
  6. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon dried thyme. Bring to a simmer for 2 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
  7. Stir in 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken and 1 cup frozen peas.
  8. Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  9. Pour the chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  10. Unroll one 8-ounce can of refrigerated crescent roll dough and place over the chicken mixture.
  11. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are puffed and golden brown. Serve immediately.
