Directions

  1. Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add frozen vegetable mix, cover, and steam until tender, 2 to 6 minutes.

  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  3. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in skillet over medium heat, cook and stir onion and celery in hot butter until soft and translucent, 5 to 10 minutes.

  4. Melt remaining butter in a pot over medium-high heat. Whisk flour into butter to form a thick paste. Slowly add chicken broth to flour-butter mixture, whisking constantly, until mixture is hot and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.

  5. Stir chicken, steamed mixed vegetables, and onion-celery mixture into broth mixture, season with seasoned salt, cayenne pepper, and black pepper. Remove from heat and let mixture cool slightly, about 5 minutes.

  6. Fold sour cream and mozzarella cheese into chicken mixture, pour into a casserole dish.

  7. Spread pastry dough over the top of the chicken mixture and pierce the dough several times with a fork.

  8. Bake in the preheated oven until crust is browned and chicken mixture is bubbling, about 30 minutes.

Recipe Note

Chicken and veggies in a creamy sauce. I created this as an alternative to using canned cream soups. I had a tube of Pillsbury® crescent roll dough, so I used that as a crust. It was okay, but I will use a regular pie crust (store-bought or scratch) the next time. My husband loved the chicken/veggie filling;it's a keeper.
