Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Set aside.
-
In a large skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, carrots, celery, and peas. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
-
Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir to combine. Cook for another 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
-
Slowly whisk in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Let the mixture simmer until it thickens, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the shredded chicken, dried thyme, salt, and pepper to the creamy mixture. Stir well to combine all the ingredients. Remove from heat.
-
Layer 4 sheets of phyllo dough on the bottom of the prepared baking dish, brushing each sheet with melted butter before adding the next.
-
Pour the chicken and vegetable filling over the phyllo layers, spreading it out evenly.
-
Layer the remaining 4 sheets of phyllo dough on top of the filling, again brushing each sheet with melted butter.
-
Tuck in any overhanging edges of the phyllo dough and crimp the edges to seal the pot pie.
-
Using a sharp knife, make a few slits on the top layer of phyllo to allow steam to escape during baking.
-
Bake the Chicken Pot Pie With Phyllo in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the phyllo is golden brown and crispy.
-
Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy the aroma and dig into the deliciousness of this comforting dish!
