INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup chopped Carrots
1/2 cup chopped Celery
1/2 cup Frozen Peas
1/4 cup chopped Onion
1 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1 tbsp Whole Wheat Flour
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
Seasonings (Salt, Pepper, Thyme) to taste
PREPARATION
Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Sauté chopped onions, carrots, and celery until they begin to soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Add diced chicken breast and cook until lightly browned on all sides.
Sprinkle whole wheat flour over the mixture, stirring continuously for about 1 minute to combine and lightly toast the flour.
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring to smooth out any lumps.
Add frozen peas and continue to simmer for 5-7 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender.
Stir in the low-fat milk and season with salt, pepper, and thyme, adjusting flavors as needed.
Allow the pot pie filling to thicken slightly, then remove from heat and serve warm.
