Follow The Directions

01

Step

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and green bell pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, about 3 minutes.

02

Step

Add chicken and cook, stirring frequently, until chicken is almost cooked through, about 7 minutes more.

03

Step

Stir in flour, salt, garlic powder, paprika, mustard powder, and black pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute to form a roux.

04

Step

Gradually stir in 1 1/2 cups milk, hot water, and bouillon. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer, stirring frequently, until thickened and bubbly, about 3 minutes. Stir in roasted red peppers.

05

Step

Divide mixture evenly among 6 (8-ounce) ramekins or baking dishes.

06

Step

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

07

Step

On a lightly floured surface, roll out puff pastry sheet to a 10x15-inch rectangle. Cut pastry into 6 (5-inch) squares.

08

Step

Top each ramekin with a pastry square. Whisk together egg and 1 tablespoon milk in a small bowl. Brush pastry with egg mixture.

09

Step

Arrange dishes on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake until pastry is golden brown and filling is bubbly, about 15 minutes.

10

Step

Let cool 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a splash of dry sherry or white wine to the sauce while it simmers.
Don't overwork the puff pastry, as this can prevent it from rising properly. Keep it cold until ready to use.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as peas, carrots, or celery, to customize your pot pies.
If you don't have ramekins, you can use a single large baking dish instead. Adjust baking time accordingly.
