Equipment

Method
 

  1. Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté onion, celery, and carrots until softened.
  2. Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir constantly for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
  3. Slowly whisk in chicken broth, stirring to remove lumps. Bring to a simmer.
  4. Add shredded chicken, peas, corn, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 10–15 minutes.
  5. Reduce heat and stir in cream or milk. Simmer gently (do not boil) until thick and creamy.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning. Optionally, add white wine or lemon juice before serving.
  7. Serve hot with crusty bread or pastry toppings for that classic pot pie feel.

Notes

To make it vegetarian, substitute mushrooms for chicken and use vegetable broth. For gluten-free, use cornstarch instead of flour.
