      • 2 sheets puff pastry<\/li>\n
      • 1 large egg<\/li>\n
      • 1 tablespoon water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        \u00a0Instructions<\/h2>\n

        1. Cook the Chicken<\/h3>\n

        Place the chicken in a pot with \u00bd teaspoon salt, \u00bd teaspoon black pepper, and 3 garlic cloves.<\/p>\n

        Add enough water to cover the chicken and simmer until fully cooked.<\/p>\n

        Remove the chicken, let it cool slightly, then shred it and set aside.<\/p>\n

        2. Prepare the Filling<\/h3>\n

        Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.<\/p>\n

        Add the chopped garlic and saut\u00e9 for about 1\u20132 minutes<\/strong>, until fragrant.<\/p>\n

        Add the chopped onion and sliced bell pepper. Cook for 3\u20134 minutes<\/strong>, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften.<\/p>\n

        3. Add the Chicken and Vegetables<\/h3>\n

        Add the shredded chicken and mixed vegetables.<\/p>\n

        Season with Italian seasoning, black pepper, paprika, salt, and garlic powder.<\/p>\n

        Stir well and cook for another 4\u20135 minutes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

        4. Make the Creamy Sauce<\/h3>\n

        Sprinkle the flour over the chicken mixture and stir well to coat everything.<\/p>\n

        Slowly pour in the milk while stirring continuously to prevent lumps.<\/p>\n

        Add the heavy cream and chicken bouillon cube.<\/p>\n

        Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sauce becomes thick and creamy.<\/p>\n

        5. Add the Cheese<\/h3>\n

        Turn the heat to low and stir in the shredded cheese.<\/p>\n

        Mix until the cheese has completely melted and the filling is smooth and creamy.<\/p>\n

        Remove from the heat and set aside.<\/p>\n

        6. Assemble the Pot Pie<\/h3>\n

        Preheat your oven to 350\u00b0F<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

        Lightly grease a baking dish.<\/p>\n

        Place one sheet of puff pastry into the bottom of the dish, gently pressing it into the corners.<\/p>\n

        Pour the creamy chicken filling evenly over the pastry.<\/p>\n

        Place the second puff pastry sheet over the top.<\/p>\n

        Trim any excess pastry around the edges if needed and gently press the edges to seal.<\/p>\n

        7. Add the Egg Wash<\/h3>\n

        Whisk together 1 egg and 1 tablespoon of water<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

        Brush the egg wash generously over the top puff pastry.<\/p>\n

        For extra ventilation, make a few small cuts in the pastry to allow steam to escape.<\/p>\n

        8. Bake<\/h3>\n

        Place the pot pie in the preheated oven and bake at 350\u00b0F for 22\u201324 minutes<\/strong>, or until the puff pastry is beautifully golden brown and flaky.<\/p>\n

        If the top browns too quickly, loosely cover it with foil for the remaining baking time.<\/p>\n

        9. Serve<\/h3>\n

        Remove from the oven and allow it to rest for about 5\u201310 minutes<\/strong> before serving.<\/p>\n

        Serve warm and enjoy this creamy, cheesy, comforting homemade Chicken Pot Pie!<\/p>\n

        \u00a0Helpful Tips<\/h2>\n
          \n
        • Make sure the filling is thick before adding it to the pastry.<\/li>\n
        • Don’t overfill the baking dish.<\/li>\n
        • Keep puff pastry chilled until you’re ready to use it for the best flaky texture.<\/li>\n
        • Let the pie rest briefly after baking so the filling can set slightly.<\/li>\n
        • You can use frozen mixed vegetables for a quick and easy option.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
