Car's Chicken Pot Pie

By Car

I don't have the energy to cook often, so I'm discovering how to make some things delicious by taking short cuts!

About half of a 5 lb. can of white meat chicken

Couple cups of baby carrots

Full stalk of celery, trimmed

Large sweet onion

2 large potatoes

3 small cans chicken broth

3 jars creamy chicken gravy

Salt and ground pepper

Puff pastry, 1 package

Drain the chicken and cut into desirable size pieces.

Cut the baby carrots into pieces and simmer in about half a can of chicken broth

Chop celery and onion, sauté in two tablespoons butter or vegetable oil till softened

Combine chicken, carrots in cooking juice, celery and onion together in large pot. Salt and pepper to taste. I like to use seasoned salt.

Add the chicken broth, over and slowly simmer for about an hour.

Add the gravy and heat till bubbly and hot through.

Spray a 5 by 7 inch glass baking dish with non stick spray.

Pour in the hot mixture

Spread out the puff pastry. Place the puff pastry over the hot mixture leaving no spaces. Use wet fingers to attach the pastry to the edges of the pan.

Beat an egg with a fork then brush top of pastry with the egg.

Bake in a 400 degree oven till pastry is golden brown. You'll have to watch closely, takes about 20 to 30 minutes.
