Cooking MethodCasserole
Ingredients
- 1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 3 or 4 carrots, cut into 1/2-inch chunks
- 1 or 2 potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
- 1 or 2 parsnips, cut into 1/2-inch chunks
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup frozen pearl onions
- 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1/2 cup evaporated skimmed milk
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon dried sage
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 or more 17 x 11-inch sheet phyllo dough, cut crosswise in half
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
-
In a large saucepan, combine the broth, carrots, potato, parsnip and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to a simmer, and cover. Cook until the potato is almost tender, about 5 minutes.
-
Stir in the pearl onion, peas and chicken, return to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cover. Cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the evaporated milk, flour, sage, pepper and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and stir to blend. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook until the sauce has thickened to the consistency of heavy cream, about 2 minutes.
-
Stir into the chicken mixture and cook for 1 minute longer.
-
Mound the chicken mixture into a 9-inch deep-dish pie pan. Layer the phyllo sheets on top, overlapping the sheets at right angles, tucking in the edges, and lightly spraying each sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
-
Using a small, sharp knife, cut a 3-inch X in the center of the pie, pull back the corners, and lightly spray the corners with non-stick cooking spray.
- Bake the pot pie for 15 minutes, or until the filling is heated through and the phyllo is crisp and lightly golden.

I am new to this site, but there are many recipes I'd like to try. But, because my husband is on a restricted heart healthy & low calorie diet, I need to know the calories, carbs, fat & protein of his meals. Could tjis info be included with the recipes in the future? Thanks
