Individual Chicken and Veggie Pot Pies
- 3 Tablespoons Butter
- 1/2 cups Onion, Chopped
- 1 whole Carrot, Chopped
- 1 Tablespoon Fresh Rosemary, Chopped
- 1/2 cups Flour
- 3 cups Veggie (or Chicken) Broth
- 1 whole Chicken Breast, Cooked And Cubed
- 2 cups Broccoli, Cut Into Smallish Pieces
- 1 ear Corn, Cooked And Cut Off The Cob
- 1 whole Tiny Sweet Potato, Cooked
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- 1/2 packages (1 Sheet )puff Pastry Dough, Thawed
- 1 whole Egg Yolk
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Then add the onion, carrot, and rosemary and cook for about 5 minutes or so, until things really soften up.
- Now add flour and a dash of salt and cook until things brown up a little and smell sort of nutty, about 5 minutes.
- Stir, stir, stir, so nothing burns.
- Now add the broth and whisk it a lot because you dont want lumps in there.
- Turn up the heat a little and boil the heck out of things for about 5 minutes and stir as it all thickens up.
- After the boiling stage, turn the heat down and let it simmer for about 10 minutes (or less, if youre impatient like me).
- Then add all of the veggies and chicken and stuff you prepped earlier.
- And some more salt and pepper, too.
- Divide the mixture into four little oven-proof bowls or ramekins.
- Refrigerate until things cool down a little, because you dont want the hot filling to mess up the puff pastry topping.
- Roll out the puff pastry sheet to about 1/8-inch thickness.
- Cut it into four squares, and then plop them on top of the bowls/ramekins.
- Cut little vent holes on top.
- Make an egg wash from the egg yolk and a splash of water and brush it over the pastry.
- Refrigerate the pies for a few minutes while the oven preheats (to 375 degrees).
- Bake the pies for about 35 minutes, until the pastry is browned and the filling bubbles a bit through the vent holes.
- Remove from oven and let cool a little before eating.
- Enjoy!
