2. Chicken Pot Pie Skillet
What you need:
One and a half pounds of chicken cut into cubes
Tbsp olive oil
Medium onion diced
1 lb bag frozen carrots and peas
2 cloves minced garlic
2 cups chicken broth
3 tbsp flour
½ cup whole milk
Salt and pepper
Ready-made pie crust
To make:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. While the oven is heating add olive oil to a 9 inch cast iron skillet. When olive oil is hot add in the chicken, salt and pepper. Cook for five or six minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Move the chicken to a plate and cover to keep warm. Put the onions in the skillet and saute. Next, add in the peas, carrots, and garlic. Sprinkle with flour and stir until the flour is dissolved.
Add in the broth and simmer. Stir until thickened, around eight to ten minutes. Turn the heat off and add in the milk. Return the chicken to the skillet and stir. Place the pie crust over the skillet. Cut slits in the top of the crust and then put the entire pan in the oven. Bake for around 20 minutes or until the crust is a golden brown.
