A comfort food favorite turned into a soup. The best part of pot pie is always the crust, and here it is added to the soup in the form of seasoned crisps prepared from a sheet of ready-made pie dough.

Prep & Cook Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll the pastry sheet onto parchment. Working quickly with cold pastry, brush with egg then sprinkle evenly with 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Cut pastry into 1 1/2-inch pieces with a pizza wheel or sharp knife. Bake 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and set aside. 
  2. While pastry bakes, heat oil in a Dutch oven (5 to 6 qt.). Add carrots, onion, celery, 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Cook 5 to 8 minutes until onions are softened, stirring frequently. Sprinkle vegetables with flour and rosemary; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. 
  3. Add stock and milk; stir well, scraping up any flour from bottom and sides of pan with a wooden spoon. Bring to a simmer (do not boil) over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Adjust heat to keep soup at a simmer, as needed. 
  4. Stir in chicken and peas; cook 5 minutes or until heated through. Season to taste. Stir in parsley and serve soup topped with pastry crisps.

NOTE: Each 2 lb. rotisserie chicken has about 4 cups of meat.
