DELICIOUS GARLIC BREAD CHICKEN POT PIE

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350° degrees

Step 2

Topping: Stir together melted butter and garlic. Place bread chunks in a bowl, drizzle over butter, toss. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat oil in an oven-proof skillet over high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook until browned – about 4 minutes. Remove.

Step 4

Lower heat to medium-high. Melt butter in the same skillet. Add onion and garlic, cook for 2 minutes.

Step 5

Add carrot and celery then cook for 1 minute.

Step 6

Add flour, cook for 1 minute. You’ll have a pasty mix.

Step 7

While stirring, add the whipping cream, chicken stock and mix quickly to dissolve the paste into the liquid. Add the salt and pepper, stir.

Step 8

Cook for 2 – 3 minutes, stirring regularly. It should start steaming and bubbling a bit, and the sauce will thicken.

Step 9

Add chicken or turkey, peas and mushrooms, and mix into the sauce.

Step 10

Top with bread spread to cover the surface. Grate over parmesan if using, top with melting cheese.

Step 11

Bake: Bake for 12 – 15 minutes or until the cheese gets some brown spots. Tent foil over so it doesn’t stick to the cheese, then bake for a further 10 minutes.

Step 12

Serve: Sprinkle with additional parmesan if desired, then serve!
