Chicken Pot Pie

Added on March 29th, 2012 by our friend from http://enjoyinghealthyfoods.com/2012/03/27/2031/

Cooking Steps

Saute onions until translucent (preferably in a Le Creuset, that can be transferred from stove to oven- available for purchase below)
Add carrots, celery, cook a couple minutes
Add chicken and cook a couple minutes, season with salt and pepper
Add peas
Stir in heavy cream and bring to a boil
Stir a few minutes til it thickens up to a soupy consistency
Add chicken stock and 1 – 2 tsp thyme
While cooking and preparing the chicken vegetable mixture, work on the Cauliflower crust.

Crust -
Break cauliflower into chunky pieces and steam until just tender. Put in the food processor with 2 TBSP Coconut oil and process until smooth. Add pepper to taste. Mix in one egg and if you want to add one cup of mozzarella cheese. Once it is all mixed in well add 1 TBSP Coconut Flour and 1 TBSP Almond Flour/Meal.
Pour Cauliflower mixture on top of the Chicken Mixture in the Le Creuset.
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until the cauliflower topping light brown. I also sprinkled a little mozzarella cheese on top!
This was delicious! I will make this again with out the cheese!
ENJOY!!!

  2. I hate to be a downer, but peas are not part of paleo… and neither are dairy products.

  3. coconut milk rather than dairy
    non dairy, non soy cheese replacement product
    mushrooms instead of peas
    Still awesome

  4. This came out amazing when I made it last night. The crust was more like mashed potatoes than a crust, but now I have another mashed something besides sweet potatoes. Great idea!

  5. This came out great despite not having any peas (my favorite part of a pot pie). My husband and I fought over the leftovers! Will definitely make again – very easy to switch up veggies to accommodate what we have on hand.
