Cooking Instructions

1 - 1.5 hrs
  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 450°.

  2. 2

    Melt butter in a large pan over medium heat. Once melted, add onion and celery. Saute until fragrant and beginning to turn translucent. (About 5 mins.)

  3. 3

    Add in frozen mixed vegetables. Cook until vegetables begin to soften, stirring occasionally. (About 5 mins.)

  4. 4

    Add the diced potatoes and mix well. Cook about another 5 minutes until veggies are soft, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.

  5. 5

    Add chicken and all spices and bullion (if using). Cook until chicken turns white, stirring frequently. (About 5 mins.)

  6. 6

    Pour in water or chicken stock and simmer over medium low heat until potoes are cooked, stirring occasionally. (10-15 mins)

  7. 7

    Mix corn starch and half-and-half until corn starch is completely dissolved. While stirring constantly, slowly add to chicken veggie mixture until fully incorporated. Sauce will thicken almost immediately. Turn off heat and cover.

  8. 8

    On a lightly floured surface, cut each pastry sheet into 9 even squares. (Left over squares can be baked for dipping.)

  9. 9

    Lightly oil/butter 12 x 6oz ramekins. Place ramekins on a baking sheet. Spoon chicken veggie mixture up to line.
