INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Carrot
1 stalk Celery
1/2 cup Peas
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Flour
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1/2 cup Chicken Broth (Low Sodium)
PREPARATION
Preheat a medium skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and sauté in the skillet until lightly browned.
Chop the carrot and celery into small pieces. Add them to the skillet with chicken and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Sprinkle in the whole wheat flour and stir well to coat the chicken and vegetables, cooking for about 1 minute to eliminate any raw flour taste.
Slowly pour in the chicken broth and low-fat milk, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens into a light creamy sauce.
Add in the peas and continue to cook for another 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
Spoon the mixture into an oven-safe dish and, if desired, top with a light layer of extra chopped vegetables or a simple whole wheat crust substitute. If topping with crust, bake in a preheated oven at 375°F for 10-12 minutes until the crust is set.
