INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Carrot
1 medium Parsnip
1/4 medium Onion
1/4 cup Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1 serving Whole Wheat Biscuit Topping
1 clove Garlic
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Peel and chop the carrot and parsnip into similar-sized chunks. Finely dice the onion and mince the garlic.
In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, sauté the garlic, onion, and thyme sprigs with a light spray of olive oil (or a splash of water for fat-free option) until the onion softens, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the chopped carrots and parsnips to the saucepan and cook for another 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
Stir in the chicken pieces and cook until lightly browned, about 3-4 minutes. Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and allow the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender and chicken is cooked through.
Reduce the heat to low and mix in the low-fat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the thyme sprigs.
Transfer the mixture into a small oven-safe baking dish. Top evenly with the whole wheat biscuit topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is lightly golden and the filling is bubbling.
Let the pot pie cool for a couple of minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
