  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 12 mini pies

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 sheet of puff pastry or pie crust
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, corn)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  2. Layer the pastry circles into the tins, pressing gently into the sides. Set aside.
  3. In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Sauté onion and garlic until fragrant. Add cooked chicken and vegetables, cook for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Pour in chicken broth and heavy cream, simmer until slightly thickened. Season with salt, pepper, and herbs.
  5. Spoon the filling into the pastry-lined tins. Cover with remaining pastry circles, seal edges.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Cool slightly before serving and garnish with herbs.
