Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin and place on a baking sheet.
- Heat oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat; add onion to the hot oil and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add chicken; cook and stir until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add peas, mushrooms, and carrots, followed by chicken broth. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and mixture thickens slightly, 10 to 15 minutes more.
- Whisk flour and salt together in a medium bowl. Work butter into the mixture using your fingers, working quickly to prevent melting, until thoroughly mixed. Scoop mixture into a volcano-shaped cone with a well in the top. Pour in buttermilk. Bring dough together using a fork, trying to moisten all flour bits, until moist and shaggy.
- Take a ball of batter and smooth into one of the prepared muffin cups. Fill with chicken mixture. Repeat until all muffin cups are filled. Cover each with a rolled layer of dough, sealing sides to prevent filling from spilling.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Continue to bake until crust is light golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes more. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Add the oil to a large pot over high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the chicken, and stir until cooked through, about 7 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a bowl.
- Melt butter in the same pot. Add the onions and carrots and stir until softened, about 8 minutes.
- Add the flour, stirring to combine. Slowly add the milk and chicken broth, alternating between the two, stirring continuously and bringing to a boil.
- Add the cooked chicken, peas, salt, and pepper, and stir until thoroughly mixed. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Lay out puff pastry sheets and use a small 6-inch (15 cm) bowl to cut circles out of it.
- Place dough circles in a nonstick muffin tin and fill with pot pie mixture.
- Using remaining puff pastry, cut ⅛-inch (3 mm) strips of dough, and make a lattice top for each muffin cup. Brush the lattice tops with the egg.
- Bake for 15 minutes, until golden brown.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables in your pot pies to add flavor and nutrition. Some good choices include carrots, celery, onions, peas, and corn.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Cook it just until it is cooked through, or it will become dry and tough.
- Use a good quality puff pastry for the crust. This will make the pot pies light and flaky.
- If you don't have time to make your own puff pastry, you can use store-bought puff pastry sheets.
- Be careful not to overfill the pot pies. This will make them difficult to seal and they may burst open during baking.
- Bake the pot pies until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Let the pot pies cool for a few minutes before serving.
