Chicken Pot Pie
- 4 Tablespoons Butter
- 1/4 Cup Finely Chopped Onion
- 5 Tablespoons flour
- 3 Cups Chicken Broth (Ina adds two chicken boullion cubes for four individual pot pies
- should we replace some salt with this?)
- 1 Cup Carrots Cut Into 1/2-Inch Dice
- 1 Teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper

- 1 Cup Milk

- 1 Cup Fresh Or Frozen And Defrosted Petite Peas
- 2 Cups Cooked Chicken (I just poach a couple of chicken breasts in broth or water with some
- herbs and then cube up)
- In a 4-quart saucepan, melt the butter and saute the onion for 2 minutes, until it begins to soften. Add the flour, and whisk until it bubbles. Gradually whisk in the broth a little at a time, stirring as you go with the whisk, until the sauce is thick and smooth, about 3-5 minutes. Add the carrots, salt, pepper and sage, stirring until the sauce begins to simmer. Simmer for 5 minutes. Add the milk, corn, peas and chicken, simmering for another 3 minutes. Pour the filling into a 3-quart casserole. Refrigerate until ready to bake.
- Make the crust.
- Preheat the oven to 375u0b0 F. Bake the pot pie for 30 to 40 minutes, until the crust is golden brown.
