FREEZER MEAL PREP!
Ingredients:
🍗1 lb chicken, cooked and chopped
🫛1 cup peas, thawed from frozen
🧂1 teaspoon salt
🧂½ teaspoon pepper
🧅1 cup onion, chopped
🥬1 cup celery, chopped
🥕1 cup carrot, chopped
🥛1 cup milk
🧈⅓ cup butter
🍞½ cup all-purpose flour
🥣2 cups chicken broth
🥧4 unbaked pie crusts, homemade or store-bought
Directions:
1️⃣Cook the chicken in a large skillet with a drizzle of oil and salt and pepper. Set aside.
2️⃣In the same skillet, add the butter, onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until softened, about 5-10 minutes.
3️⃣Sprinkle in the flour and stir until smooth.
Cook for about a minute, stirring constantly.
4️⃣Add chicken broth and milk; cook, stirring constantly until thickened and bubbly, about 10 minutes.
5️⃣Stir in the cooked chicken, peas, salt, and pepper.
6️⃣Let this mixture cool before pouring it into pie crusts. This step is very important! It allows the mixture to thicken a bit more.
