INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Carrot
1 small Parsnip
1/4 cup Frozen Green Peas
1/4 small Yellow Onion
1 Garlic Clove
1/2 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1/4 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 tbsp Whole Wheat Flour
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened and fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Cube the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add to the pan. Sauté until lightly browned on all sides.
Peel and dice the carrot and parsnip into small, uniform pieces for even cooking. Add these to the pan along with the frozen peas.
Sprinkle the whole wheat flour over the ingredients and stir to coat evenly. Allow the flour to cook for about 1 minute.
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and add the fresh thyme. Stir and bring to a gentle simmer, letting the mixture thicken slightly, about 5-7 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the non-fat Greek yogurt until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Let the pot pie fill warm through for another 2 minutes, ensuring all ingredients are well combined.
Serve hot as a wholesome meal for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
