Chicken Pot Pie

I love pot pies. I love to make them and eat them and serve them.


4 T unsalted butter (1/2 stick)
1 med. onion (diced)
1/2 C. flour
1/2 tsp. salt  (may want to omit this if broth is already salty)
pepper to taste
4 C. chicken broth (32oz)
3 C. cut up chicken   (I used 5 chicken breasts, but you can use whatever you have.)
1 small bag frozen mixed veggies
2 cans croissants
1 lg egg yolk
1 tsp water

Preheat oven to 375*
- Melt butter; add onions & cook until tender and onions are clear.
- Add flour, salt & pepper. Stir constantly until pale yellow & thick like oatmeal
- Add broth, continue stirring while bringing it to a boil and thickening. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat.  Stir in chicken & frozen veggies, season again if needed.
- Lay out croissants on top to cover mixture.  (I had 7 left to roll and bake seperately)
- Beat egg yolk & water, brush on croissants.
Bake 25-35 minutes.
