Time 2h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 20

7 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
5 medium leeks (white and pale green parts only), chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped, divided
2 cloves garlic, minced
8 cups low-sodium chicken broth
8 small Yukon Gold potatoes, chopped
2 large bay leaves
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
1 pinch salt, or to taste
1 pinch dried thyme, or to taste
1 pinch dried sage, or to taste
1 pinch dried rosemary, or to taste
¾ cup heavy cream
4 medium carrots, sliced
½ cup frozen peas
4 cups diced cooked chicken breast
1 large egg, beaten
1 tablespoon water
1 (17.5 ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with foil. Lightly grease six 12-ounce oven-safe ramekins and place on the baking sheet for easy cleanup.
  • Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a pot over medium-low heat. Add leeks, onion, 1/3 of the chopped celery, and garlic; saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add broth, potatoes, and bay leaves. Season with pepper, salt, thyme, sage, and rosemary; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for at least 25 minutes.
  • Remove bay leaves. Use an immersion blender to emulsify the liquid.
  • Slowly stir in heavy cream. Add remaining 3 tablespoons butter with carrots, peas, and remaining celery. Stir in chicken. Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes.
  • Mix egg and water together and set aside for egg wash.
  • Roll puff pastry out slightly. Flip one of the prepared ramekins upside-down on the pastry; cut out circles 1/2 inch larger than the ramekin.
  • Fill each ramekin 3/4 full with the chicken mixture; do not fill to the top or it will make a mess in your oven. Place cut rounds of puff pastry over the tops and press around the edges to seal. Brush egg wash over each. Be sure to put a few knife slits on top of each pie to allow to vent.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the pastry is a golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool at room temperature for 10 to 12 minutes before serving.
