This is a combination of several recipes, trying to balance the joys of a full-fat pot pie with the nutritional demands of a low-fat lifestyle.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cooked
1 onion, diced
2 celery ribs, diced
8 ounces carrots, chopped in 1/4-inch rounds
10 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1 red bell pepper, diced
12 ounces frozen tiny peas
1/2 cup fat-free chicken broth
3 cups skim milk
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon dried thyme
salt and pepper
2 cups low-fat biscuit mix (bisquick heart smart)
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup skim milk
