Method

Preparation

1

Cook the Chicken

In a pot, boil the chicken breast in water until fully cooked, about 15-20 minutes. Remove, shred, and set aside.

2

Sauté Vegetables

In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onions, carrots, celery, and green beans. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until softened.

3

Add Mushrooms

Add shiitake mushrooms to the skillet and cook for another 3-4 minutes.

4

Make the Sauce

Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir to combine. Gradually add chicken broth, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens. Stir in heavy cream, salt, pepper, and thyme.

5

Combine with Chicken

Add the shredded chicken to the sauce mixture and stir until well combined.

6

Assemble the Pie

Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into a pie crust. Cover with the second pie crust, sealing the edges. Cut slits in the top crust for steam to escape.

7

Bake

Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 30-35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.

8

Cool and Serve

Let the pot pie cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
