  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 6 Tbsp water

FOR THE FILLING

  • 4 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil, divided
  • 2 cups medium diced yellow onion (about 2 medium sized onions)
  • 2 cups diced carrots (about 4 carrots)
  • 2 cups diced celery (about 67 ribs)

  • 5 cups cooked diced chicken (4 chicken breasts)
  • ¼ cup diced chives
  • 1 egg, beaten, for egg wash


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium pan. Saute onions for 5 minutes, stiring often. Add carrots, celery and sea salt and cook till vegetables are softened but not browned, about 10 minutes.

  3. Add broth mixture to vegetables, stirring till incorporate. Bring to a simmer, add chicken, peas and chives and turn off heat.
  4. Ladel mixture evenly into 6 individual deep dish, 13 ounce ramekins.
  5. Gently pie crust to top each ramekin. Brush with egg wash. Cut an X in the center of the dough to allow the filling to vent.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  7. Allow to cool for 30 minutes before serving, to allow the filling to firm up.
