INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare the chicken
- Place the chicken in a large saute pan and surround with veggies. Sprinkle with salt, and add enough water to pan to cover chicken entirely. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Remove chicken from cooking liquid, reserving 2 cups of the cooking stock for the filling. Allow the chicken to cool before chopping into bite-sized pieces. Set chicken aside.
Prepare the filling
- In a medium sauce pan, melt the butter
over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook until bubbly. Slowly whisk
in the reserved chicken stock, stirring vigorously until smooth. Stir in
the milk, thyme, sage, salt and pepper. Bring sauce to a boil; reduce heat
and simmer until thickened and bubbly, about 10 minutes. Stir in the
parmesan and sour cream. Set sauce aside.
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add
the chopped celery, carrots and onion, and saute until onion is
translucent and veggies are softened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Stir in the chopped chicken and frozen peas. Pour the prepared sauce over
the chicken mixture, stirring well to combine. Pour mixture into a greased
9x13" baking dish.
