This pot pie offers a creamy, satisfying filling with lightly seasoned chicken, carrots, celery, and onions, all enveloped in a silky cream sauce for an indulgent yet balanced meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 cups chopped Cauliflower
1 medium Carrot
1 stalk Celery
1/4 medium Onion
1/4 cup Half-and-Half
1/4 cup Chicken Broth
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Steam 2 cups of chopped cauliflower until tender, then blend into a smooth mash. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Spread the cauliflower mash on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to form a thin crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes until the edges start to crisp.
While the crust bakes, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the chopped quarter onion, diced carrot, and sliced celery until they begin to soften, about 4-5 minutes.
Add diced chicken breast (4 oz cut into bite-sized pieces) to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper, and cook until the chicken is browned and nearly cooked through, about 6-7 minutes.
Stir in the chicken broth and half-and-half to form a creamy sauce, letting the mixture simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Pour the chicken and vegetable filling evenly over the pre-baked cauliflower crust. Return the assembly to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, until the filling is bubbly and the crust edges are golden.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
