Ingredients
  

4 chicken thighs, skinless and boneless, chopped

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 carrots, sliced

2 celery stalks, sliced

1 cup mushrooms, sliced

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

2 cups low-sodium chicken broth

2 tablespoons tomato paste

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (slurry)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup frozen peas

1 pre-made pie crust (or homemade if preferred)

1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions
 

Sauté Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped chicken thighs, seasoning them with salt and pepper. Cook until they're browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

    Cook Vegetables: Add the diced onion, minced garlic, sliced carrots, sliced celery, and mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.

      Add Herbs & Liquid: Stir in the dried thyme and rosemary. Add chicken broth, tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce, mixing well. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

        Thicken Sauce: Stir in the cornstarch slurry to thicken the mixture, allowing it to simmer for an additional 5 minutes until it reaches a nice consistency. Remove from heat, and fold in the frozen peas. Adjust seasoning if needed.

          Prepare for Baking: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into a deep pie dish or an oven-safe skillet.

            Top with Pie Crust: Cover the filling with the prepared pie crust, crimping the edges to seal. Make a few slits in the crust to allow steam to escape. Brush the surface of the crust with beaten egg for a golden finish.

              Bake: Place the pot pie in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

                Cool and Serve: Allow the pot pie to rest for about 10 minutes before serving so the filling thickens up a bit more.

                    - Presentation Tips: Serve the pot pie directly in the baking dish for a rustic look, or portion it into individual bowls. For a garnish, sprinkle with fresh parsley or thyme before serving for a pop of color.
