Description

Creamy, packed with veggies, and topped with a buttery crust…you cannot go wrong with my Easy Chicken Pot Pie! The entire family loves it every time.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (plus 6 tablespoons)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion (finely chopped)
  • 2 medium carrots (small dice)
  • 1 parsnip (small dice)
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • 1 12oz bag Taylor Farms Green Beans, chopped into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 cup Taylor Farms Cauliflower Pearls
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme (minced)
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2–3 boneless skinless chicken breasts (shredded (I use store bought Rotisserie chicken))
  • 4 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups chicken stock
  • 1 pie crust (I use store bought)
  • 1 egg (whisked with 1 teaspoon water)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Heat a large dutch oven or large pot over medium/high heat. Melt 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil in the pot. Add the onion, carrots, parsnips, 1 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes until veggies begin to soften.
  2. Add the green beans, cauliflower pearls, thyme and another ½ teaspoon salt and pinch of pepper. Cook for another 7-10 minutes then turn off heat.
  3. Add the frozen peas and shredded chicken and stir to combine. Set aside.
  4. In a small saucepan melt 6 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 30-60 seconds, stirring occasionally. Add the flour and whisk for 30 seconds. While whisking, slowly pour in chicken stock and whisk until it starts to thicken, about 1-2 minutes. Add a small pinch of salt and turn off heat.
  5. Pour the sauce over the veggie/chicken mixture and stir until everything is coated well. Grease a large and deep pie dish, or baking dish. Pour the filling into the dish and place the pie dough on top, crimping and sealing the edges.
  6. Brush the top lightly with egg wash and use a knife to make two slits in the crust. Bake for 30-35 minutes until crust is golden. Let sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.

“On the other side of fear is freedom.” ⁣
⁣
One of my favorite quotes from @jensincero 🙌🏼⁣
⁣
Isn’t this just the truest of truths?⁣
⁣
SO much of what holds us back in life is based in fear. ⁣
⁣
Fear of failure.⁣
Fear of not being enough.⁣
Fear of struggle.⁣
Fear of pain.⁣
⁣
Sure, getting what you want and going after your dreams isn’t always easy. But, what if I told you that directly on the other side of that mountain of fear is complete and utter freedom? 🤩⁣
⁣
Freedom to believe in yourself.⁣
Freedom to be who you want.⁣
Freedom to rise above the rest.⁣
⁣
Guess what else lies within freedom?⁣
⁣
CONFIDENCE.⁣
⁣
Don’t you dare underestimate the power of confidence. ⁣
⁣
Confidence allows you to do things you never thought possible. ⁣
⁣
Confidence opens up so many doors for you to explore. ⁣
⁣
Confidence = Freedom.⁣
⁣
And both of those things are waiting for you on the other side of that mountain. ⁣
⁣
Today is the LAST DAY to get on the Cook with Confidence waitlist. If you’re on it, you get early access to the application which goes out tomorrow morning! ⁣
⁣
Don’t sleep on it. Let’s do this together. ⁣
⁣
Swipe to see how CWC alum Nicole, got to the other side of the mountain. ➡️⁣

Spoiler Alert:🚨It’s never the right time. ⁣ Spoiler Alert:🚨It’s never the right time. ⁣
⁣
There’s never gonna be the perfect time to go after your goals, make the change, take the leap or do that one scary thing you’ve been thinking about. Life will keep happening. There will always be a reason to not.⁣
⁣
But what if? What if you decided right now to make it work? What if you decided to prioritize that thing you KNOW will change your life (and the lives of others) forever? ⁣
⁣
What if I told you that in 8 weeks (think about how short that is in the grand scheme), you could feel confident enough in the kitchen to feed yourself and your family healthy, delicious meals that they begged for over and over again. ⁣
⁣
How would that make you feel? Truly... I want you to take a second to think about how you would feel knowing that you and your family were actually excited about the next meal. So excited that they go back for seconds and request it again the next night. Feels pretty good, huh? ⁣
⁣
Feels pretty awesome to put yourself first for a change because guess what? When you put yourself first, everybody wins. ⁣
⁣
When you shine, everybody lights up. Confidence is something we all have within us, sometimes we just need a little help finding it. ⁣
⁣
If you are someone who feels overwhelmed, lost or anxious in the kitchen, I am here to help. In fact, my gift in life is helping people overcome those feelings in the kitchen which ultimately bleeds into other areas of their life, lighting up the people around them. ⁣
⁣
Cook with Confidence is my 8-week high touch, virtual program that helps busy home cooks build confidence in the kitchen and learn how to cook delicious meals without being tied to a recipe. This is NOT your average cooking program. ⁣
⁣
This is NOT a program that hands you a list of ingredients or meal plans and sends you on your merry way. ⁣
⁣
This IS a program that dives deep into the fundamental skills that it takes to achieve ultimate kitchen freedom. Everything from kitchen essentials, to knife skills, to chicken, fish, soup, pasta and more. This IS a program that will change your life. ⁣
⁣
Applications open on Monday for waitlist only so get on it! Stop waiting, the time is now. ♥️

LOOK WHAT I MADE! My first 6-braid challah! 😍⁣
⁣
I’ve been super inspired by this new book JEW-ish by @jakecohen. ⁣
⁣
I love his story, the why behind the book and of course, the recipes!⁣
⁣
Jew-ish is the perfect way to describe how I grew up. Sure, I was raised Jewish, we celebrated all the big holidays and I had a Bat Mitzvah, but I never really built a strong connection with Judaism itself. ⁣
⁣
I’ve learned most everything I know about Judaism through having kids and learning alongside them. It’s been a beautiful journey for me and this book has inspired me to continue learning, celebrating and being proud. ✡️⁣
⁣
@jakecohen writes about making Shabbat and Jewish traditions whatever you want them to be without the pressure of making it perfect. He also teaches you how to make this challah! For me, food is what brings us all together and BOOM CLAP it doesn’t get more Jewish than this big ass challah! ⁣
⁣
Let’s do a GIVEAWAY to celebrate! ⁣
⁣
Enter for a chance to win a copy of @jakecohen book JEW-ISH.⁣
⁣
1. Tag a friend you love and tell them you love them! Let’s spread joy! ♥️⁣

That’s it! I’ll pick a winner tomorrow night. Shabbat Shalom friends!
