Ingredients

  • 16 ounces chicken tenderloins uncooked
  • 1 cups broccoli tops only
  • 1/2 cups carrots cubed
  • 1/2 cups celery cubed
  • 1/4 cups leeks diced
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 3 cups milk or half and half
  • 1 cups Parmesan cheese grated
  • 2 chicken bouillon cubes
  • 12 ounces pastry
  • 1 egg beaten

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Boil chicken and vegetables in salted water until just cooked, about 15 minutes. Drain well.
  • Make the sauce: Melt butter in a skillet, add flour, and cook for 5 minutes to form a roux.
  • Gradually whisk in milk/half-and-half and simmer until thickened, about 10 minutes.
  • Dissolve bouillon cubes in 1/4 cup warm water and add to sauce along with Parmesan cheese.
  • Remove from heat and fold in the chicken-vegetable mixture.
  • Pour filling into a deep-dish pie plate and cover with pastry, sealing edges well.
  • Cut slits in the top for steam to escape and brush with beaten egg.
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes until crust is golden and filling is bubbling.
  • Let rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Recipe Tips

For a truly authentic Disney experience, serve this pot pie while enforcing some 50's Prime Time Cafe rules: elbows off the table, clean your plate, and no technology at dinner! Try brushing a little milk on the pastry before applying the egg wash to achieve the perfect golden crust. If you're short on time, the filling can be made a day ahead and refrigerated – just bring it to room temperature before topping with pastry and baking. For the most picturesque result, place a few decorative pastry shapes (stars, Mickey ears, etc.) on top of the central crust before baking.
