Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

02

Step

Use a pizza cutter to slice the puff pastry into 8 equal-sized strips. Weave the strips into a square lattice and place on a greased baking sheet.

03

Step

Bake in preheated oven until it just starts to brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.

04

Step

Place the frozen peas, carrots, and corn in a microwave-safe bowl and cook in the microwave until cooked but still firm, 5 to 10 minutes.

05

Step

Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Pour in the milk and stir while cooking until the mixture is smooth. Add the thyme and continue to cook and stir until the mixture thickens. Stir in the cooked vegetables and the chicken. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until heated through, stirring frequently, 5 to 7 minutes.

06

Step

Pour the chicken mixture into a 2-quart baking dish. Lay the pastry lattice on top. Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes.

Feel free to experiment with different frozen vegetable blends. Broccoli or green beans also work well.
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of dry sherry or white wine to the skillet along with the milk.
If you don't have leftover chicken, a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store is a convenient alternative.

    Freezing the assembled pot pie before baking works well for meal prepping.

    Absolutely loved how easy this was! Perfect for a weeknight dinner.

  • Matilde Hammes

    I didn't have thyme, so I used Italian seasoning and it worked great.

  • Casimer Schmidt

    Next time, I'll add a splash of white wine to the sauce for extra flavor.

  • Trenton Lakin

    Make sure to thaw the puff pastry completely; otherwise, it won't weave properly.
