ingredients

¹⁄₂ cup extra virgin olive oil
¹⁄₂ chopped onion
1 garlic clove, minced
1 cup carrot, sliced
2 tablespoons unsalted organic butter
¹⁄₄ cup all purspose flour
2 cups chicken stock
3 cups poached chicken or 3 cups leftover chicken
1 ¹⁄₂ cups corn
fine sea salt
1 premade pie crust

directions

Preheat oven 375 degrees.
Heat enough olive oil to thinly films the bottom of the saucepan. Add onion and garlic and cook 2-3 minutes until it begins to soften. Add carrots and cook 5 minutes to soften.
Set aside.
Melt butter. Wisk in flour and mix well. Mixture will be dry. Gradually add 1 Cup stock to the saucepan. Cool 2-3 minutes until mixture begins to thicken and takes on a golden color.
Add chicken, corn and any additional stock to achieve consistency. (Some like it soupy, some like it thicker.) Add salt to taste.
Place Mixture in baking dish and top with pie crust. Bake at 375 degrees for approximately 25 minutes or until crust is golden and pie is bubbly.
**Variation: Mashed potatoes can be substituted for pie crust topping.
**The longer you leave the chicken in the poached water to cool, the moister it will be.
