Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced

1 cup carrots, diced

1 cup potatoes, diced

1 cup green peas

1 cup celery, diced

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp dried thyme

1 tsp dried rosemary

1 cup chicken broth

1 cup heavy cream

3 tbsp all-purpose flour

Salt and pepper to taste

1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

1 package (14 ounces) puff pastry sheets, thawed

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook until lightly browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.

    Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add diced onion, garlic, and celery. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until onions are translucent. Then add carrots and potatoes, cooking for another 5 minutes.

      Create the Sauce: Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir to coat. Gradually pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring continuously. Add thyme and rosemary. Bring to a simmer, allowing the mixture to thicken, about 5 minutes.

        Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Add green peas, and mix well. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly.

          Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

            Assemble the Pie: Roll out one sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface, and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish, allowing some overhang. Pour the chicken filling into the pastry-lined dish. Roll out the second sheet of puff pastry, placing it over the filling. Trim and seal the edges, making slits in the top for steam to escape.

              Egg Wash: Brush the top of the pastry with the beaten egg to give it a golden color when baked.

                Bake: Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.

                  Cool and Serve: Allow the pot pie to cool for about 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, enjoying every savory bite!
