Ingredients

• 300 g Chicken (cut into bite-sized pieces)
• 1 tsp Salt (for chicken seasoning)
• 1 tsp Black pepper (for chicken seasoning)
• 1 tsp Onion powder
• 1 tsp Paprika (for chicken seasoning)
• 2 tbsp Butter

• 0.25 cup Peas
• 0.33 cup Corn
• 0.33 cup Mushrooms
• 1 tsp Paprika (for gravy)
• 1 tsp Oregano
• Salt (as required for gravy)
• 1 tsp Black pepper (for gravy)
• 2 tbsp All purpose flour
• 1 cup Chicken stock
• 1 cup Milk

Steps

1. 1

   Season the 300g of chicken with 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp onion powder, and 1 tsp paprika.

2. 2

   Cook the seasoned chicken in a pan until fully cooked through and browned. Remove from the pan and set aside.

3. 3

   In the same pan or a clean pot, melt 2 tbsp butter with 1 tbsp oil.

4. 4

   Add 1 tsp chopped garlic and sauté until fragrant.

5. 5

   Add 1 medium chopped onion, 1/2 carrot, 1/2 capsicum, 1/4 cup peas, 1/3 cup corn, and 1/3 cup mushrooms. Sauté the vegetables until they begin to soften.

6. 6

   Season the vegetables with 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp oregano, salt (as required), and 1 tsp black pepper.

7. 7

   Stir in 2 tbsp all-purpose flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

8. 8

   Slowly pour in 1 cup chicken stock and 1 cup milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.

9. 9

   Add the cooked chicken back into the gravy and simmer until the sauce has thickened.

10. 10

    Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and cover with a pie crust or puff pastry (though not explicitly listed in ingredients, it is implied by the title and baking step).

11. 11

    Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

12. 12

    Bake the pot pie at 180°C for 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown.

Notes

The recipe implies the use of a pastry lid (like puff pastry) for the 'pie' aspect, although it is not listed in the ingredient quantities. Some users in the comments suggest it can be made in an air fryer or on the stove.
