Why This Dish Is Hard To Resist
This dish combines tender chicken and fresh vegetables in a creamy sauce, all wrapped in a flaky crust. It’s comforting and satisfying without requiring hours in the kitchen. Perfect for busy weeknights or cozy weekends.
Directions
Melt some butter in a large pan over medium heat. Toss in the chopped onion and cook it for about 5 minutes until it’s soft and fragrant. Next, add the potatoes, celery, and carrots, and sauté everything together until the veggies start to get a little color, around 5 minutes. Sprinkle in the flour and stir it around for a minute to take away the raw taste. Then, slowly pour in the almond milk, broth, and your seasonings, stirring as you go. Let the mixture cook, stirring every now and then, until it begins to thicken. Once it’s thickened, cover the pan and let it simmer gently for 20 minutes. Finally, stir in the corn and chicken, cover again, and cook just until everything is warmed through—about 5 minutes. Give it a taste and add some pepper if you like.
