INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1.5 cups Mixed Vegetables
0.75 cup Low-Fat Milk
2 tbsp Whole Wheat Flour
0.5 cup Low Sodium Chicken Broth
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 small Onion
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped small onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the whole wheat flour to the pan to form a roux, stirring for about 1 minute to cook out the raw flour taste.
Slowly whisk in the low-sodium chicken broth and low-fat milk, allowing the mixture to thicken to a creamy consistency, about 3-5 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
While the sauce simmers, dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. In a separate pan, lightly sauté the chicken until it is just opaque on the outside, about 3-4 minutes. The chicken will finish cooking in the oven.
Combine the sautéed chicken with the mixed vegetables in a baking dish. Pour the creamy sauce over the top, stirring gently to combine.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the filling is bubbling and the chicken is cooked through.
Allow the pot pie to rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your light and creamy pot pie as a satisfying meal any time of day.
