Ingredients

  • 1 pkg frozen puff pastry thawed (2 sheets)
  • 3 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth divided
  • 2 cups peeled diced sweet potato
  • 1 1/2 cups peeled diced russet potato
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • 1 cup diced celery
  • 1 tbs minced garlic
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/3 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 tsp curry powder
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3 cups diced rotisserie chicken
  • 1 granny smith apple peeled and diced
  • 1/2 cup frozen green peas
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
  • 2 tbs fresh lime juice
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • For the crust:
  • Roll out one of the sheets of pastry just a little so it is the length of your 9x13 inch pan.
  • Cut pastry sheets into 1 inch wide strips.
  • On a parchment lined baking sheet, weave strips into a lattice pattern; freeze while preparing filling.
  • Preheat oven to 350. Lightly coat a 9x13 inch baking dish with nonstick spray
  • For the filling:
  • Heat 2 1/2 cups broth, sweet and russet potatoes, onion, celery, and garlic in a large skillet over medium-high.
  • Cook until vegetables are slightly soft, about 8 minutes.
  • Whisk together remaining 3/4 cup broth, cream, flour, curry powder, and cinnamon.
  • Pour mixture into vegetable mixture.
  • Cook and stir until thick and bubbly.
  • Add chicken, apple, peas, cilantro, and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Pour filling into prepared baking dish.
  • Bake the crust and casserole separately, yet at the same time, so the pastry is crisp when you lay it on the pie.
  • In about 25-30 minutes your filling should be bubbling, and your pastry should be golden.
  • Transfer on top of the casserole.
