Instructions

1) Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In large saucepan, bring 1 cup of chicken stock to a boil, then turn heat to medium and add the sweet potatoes, onions, carrots, greens beans, salt, pepper and oregano. Stir to combine. Simmer the vegetables for about 15 minutes or until soft, stirring occasionally.
2) Once veggies are cooked through, turn off the heat and stir in the frozen peas and chicken, and set aside.
3) In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute or until fragrant. Add the flour and cook for 30 seconds while whisking. Slowly whisk in 1 cup of chicken stock and whisk until well combined. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt and remove from heat.
4) Pour sauce over chicken and vegetable mixture and stir until well coated. Lightly grease 4-6 individual ramekins (depends on the size), or 1- 9 inch pie dish. Pour filling into each dish, and cover with pie crust, pressing down on the sides to secure. Make two small slits in the crust to allow steam to escape. Beat the egg with a tablespoon of water and lightly brush the egg wash over pie crust. Bake for 20-25 minutes for mini pot pies, and 30-35 minutes for a large pie, or until crust is golden brown. Let sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Notes

*You can use store bought rotisserie chicken and shred it yourself. Or you can make your own by placing two skinless, boneless chicken breasts in a pot with chicken stock, just enough to cover the chicken. Bring to a boil and cook for about 15 minutes until chicken is cooked through. Let cool slightly and use two forks to shred.
*Many store bought pie crusts come with two in a package. I ended up using both because I had to cut them up to fit my baking dishes. But if you are making one large pie you could easily use just one crust.
