Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 Chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
  • 1 sheet Puff pastry (store-bought)
  • 1 cup Heavy cream
  • 1 cup Chicken broth
  • ½ cup Carrots, diced
  • ½ cup Peas
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 medium Onion, diced
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 2 tbsp Flour
  • 1 Egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken Filling: Cook the chicken breasts (if not pre-cooked), shred into bite-sized pieces. In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat, sauté onion and garlic for 3-4 minutes until softened.

  2. Make the Creamy Sauce: Add flour to the skillet and stir for about a minute. Gradually add chicken broth, stirring until thickened. Then add heavy cream and cook until smooth. Toss in shredded chicken, carrots, and peas. Stir to combine.

  3. Assemble the Mini Pies: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out puff pastry on a floured surface and cut into circles. Place each circle in a muffin tin and fill with the creamy chicken mixture.

  4. Top and Bake: Place another pastry circle on top, press the edges to seal, and brush with beaten egg. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and puffed.

Notes

  • Don’t overfill the pies, as it will hinder the puff pastry from puffing properly.
  • Fresh herbs like thyme, parsley, or rosemary can add a nice burst of flavor.
  • Using rotisserie chicken is a great time-saving trick.
