Enjoy a comforting twist on the classic chicken pot pie with a creamy, light sauce and hearty root vegetables. Tender chicken breast and a medley of carrots, parsnips, and onions sit in a velvety, low-calorie sauce, perfect for any meal of the day.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Carrot
1 small Parsnip
1/4 medium Yellow Onion
1/2 cup Skim Milk
1 tbsp All-Purpose Flour
1/2 cup Reduced-Sodium Chicken Broth
1 tbsp Olive Oil
Pinch each of Thyme and Rosemary (2 pinches total)
PREPARATION
Preheat a medium skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and lightly season with a pinch of thyme and rosemary.
Sauté the chicken until lightly browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Chop the carrot, parsnip, and onion into small cubes.
In the same skillet, add the chopped vegetables and cook for about 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
Sprinkle the tablespoon of flour over the vegetables and stir to combine, cooking for another minute to remove the raw flour taste.
Slowly stir in the chicken broth and skim milk, mixing well to prevent lumps. Allow the sauce to gently thicken over low heat.
Return the chicken to the skillet, mixing in with the vegetables and sauce. Let everything simmer for 5 minutes so the flavors meld together.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional herbs if desired. Serve warm.
