Ingredients
● 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
● 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, etc.)
● 1 cup chicken broth
● 1 cup heavy cream (or whole milk)
● 2 tablespoons butter
● 2 tablespoons flour
● ½ teaspoon garlic powder
● ½ teaspoon onion powder
● Salt & pepper, to taste
● 1 package store-bought pie dough (or refrigerated biscuit dough for a shortcut)
● 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
1. Make the Creamy Chicken Filling
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for about 1 minute, whisking constantly.
Slowly add the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring until the mixture thickens.
Add the chicken, frozen veggies, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
2. Prep the Dough
Roll out your pie dough and cut it into circles slightly larger than the muffin tin cups. Press each piece into a greased muffin tin, making sure there’s a little overhang.
3. Fill & Seal the Mini Pies
Spoon the chicken filling into each dough-lined cup. Top with another small circle of dough and press the edges to seal. Cut a small slit in the top of each pie to let steam escape.
4. Bake Until Golden & Flaky
Brush the tops with beaten egg for that gorgeous golden crust. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the pies are golden brown and bubbling.
5. Cool & Enjoy
Let them cool for a few minutes (if you can wait), then dig in!
