Here's a summary of the recipe:
• Preheating the oven and preparing the puff pastry hashtags (0:06-1:04): The oven is preheated to 375°F (190°C). One sheet of puff pastry is cut into 16 strips to form four hashtags, which are then brushed with an egg yolk or plant-based milk wash for flavor and color. These hashtags are baked for about 25 minutes until golden.
• Preparing the ingredients for the filling (1:25-2:15): The video instructs to chop one large carrot, one large onion (white, yellow, Spanish, or sweet), celery, and leeks (rinsed thoroughly). Fresh parsley, dill, and basil leaves are also chopped together. Two chicken breasts are cut into chunks on a separate cutting board.
• Cooking the chicken and vegetables (2:16-3:33): First, the chicken chunks are sautéed in a hot pan with salt and garlic until golden and cooked through. Then, carrots are added, seasoned with salt, and mixed with the chicken. Next, diced celery, diced onion, and leeks are added, stirring and salting as each ingredient is incorporated. Finally, the chopped herbs are added.
• Creating the sauce for the filling (3:34-4:05): Half a cup of chicken stock (fresh or boxed) and 1/4 cup of cream (or plant-based milk like oat or almond) are added to the pan and brought to a light boil. Two tablespoons of flour are stirred in thoroughly to thicken the sauce. A squeeze of fresh lime is added for flavor.
•. Assembling and baking the pot pies (4:08-4:31): The chicken pot pie filling is divided into individual bowls placed on a sheet pan for easy handling. A drizzle of olive oil is added, and the baked puff pastry hashtags are placed on top of each bowl.
• Final bake and serving (4:32-5:17): The pot pies are baked at 375°F (190°C) for another 15 minutes. Once out of the oven, they are garnished with more fresh herbs. The video emphasizes that this dish is delicious and makes a great gift.
