Step-by-Step Instructions for Crustless Chicken Pot Pie
  1. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add 2 pounds of cubed chicken breasts and cook for about 10 minutes until lightly browned and cooked through.
  2. Toss in ½ cup of diced onion, 1 tablespoon of minced garlic, 2 cups of sliced carrots, and ¾ cup of diced celery. Sauté for another 10 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the onions become translucent.
  3. Stir in 1 teaspoon each of parsley, rosemary, and basil, and ½ teaspoon each of thyme and salt, and ¼ teaspoon of black pepper. Sprinkle in ⅓ cup of whole wheat flour, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes.
  4. Gradually pour in 1½ cups of low-sodium chicken broth while whisking continuously. Cook for 5 minutes until the filling bubbles and thickens, stirring occasionally.
  5. Slowly whisk in 1½ cups of room temperature milk, stirring constantly. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens further and becomes creamy.
  6. Mix in 1½ cups each of peas and corn to add color and sweetness. Stir everything together and allow to heat through for about 3 minutes before serving.
