INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Cauliflower (divided use for filling and crust)
1 medium Carrot, diced
1 stalk Celery, diced
1/4 cup Frozen Green Peas
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 oz Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded
1 large Egg
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Onion Powder
1/2 tsp Dried Thyme
1/2 tsp Black Pepper
Pinch of Salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. In a non-stick skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté the chicken until cooked through and lightly browned. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add diced carrot and celery. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
Add the cauliflower (using about 2/3 cup chopped for the filling) and frozen peas, then sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Stir well and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the low-fat Greek yogurt and return the chicken to the skillet. Mix thoroughly until the filling is creamy and evenly combined. Adjust seasonings as needed.
For the crust, place the remaining 1/3 cup of cauliflower in a food processor and pulse until it resembles a rice-like texture. Transfer to a small bowl, whisk in the egg, and combine with the shredded cheddar cheese to form a cohesive mixture.
Spoon the creamy chicken and vegetable filling into an ovenproof ramekin or small baking dish. Carefully top with the cauliflower crust mixture, spreading it evenly over the filling.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the crust is set and slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your lighter yet comforting pot pie!
