Ingredients
For the crust:
- 2 cups gluten-free flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup cold water
For the filling:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 2 celery stalks, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into small pieces
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free flour
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. To make the crust, combine the gluten-free flour and salt in a large bowl. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the water and mix until the dough comes together. Roll out the dough on a floured surface and place it in a 9-inch pie dish.
3. To make the filling, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute.
4. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the gluten-free flour over the chicken and vegetables and stir to combine.
5. Add the chicken broth and milk to the skillet and bring to a simmer. Cook for a few minutes until the sauce has thickened. Add the frozen peas and parsley and stir to combine.
6. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust and bake for 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
7. While the pot pie is baking, make the mashed potatoes by boiling 4-5 potatoes until they are soft. Drain the water and mash the potatoes with 1/4 cup of milk, 2 tablespoons of butter, and salt and pepper to taste.
8. Serve the gluten-free chicken pot pie with a generous scoop of mashed potatoes on top.
