How To Make mini chicken pot pies
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a standard muffin tin with nonstick baking spray or grease with shortening.
-
Step 2Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, and carrot. Cook until the onion and celery are tender.
-
Step 3Add the potatoes, chicken broth, garlic powder, and ground thyme. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce and simmer until the carrots and potatoes are tender.
-
Step 4Add the chicken, and peas. Mix the cornstarch with cold chicken broth or water. Stir it into the vegetable mixture and simmer until thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Step 5Meanwhile, open the crescent roll, separate the dough into 6 rectangles, and pinch the seams together. Using a pizza cutter, cut each rectangle into two squares. You will end up with four extra crescent rolls that I roll and bake to serve with the meal. Now press each square into a muffin tin and poke holes in the side with the tines of a fork. Bake for 7-8 minutes or until lightly browned.
-
Step 6Remove the pan from the oven and press down the center of each pot pie crust using a tablespoon. Spoon the pot pie filling into the crescent rolls and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the crescent rolls are golden brown. Let them cool for 10 minutes before removing them from the pan.
