Homemade Weight Watchers Chicken Pot Pie. This dish is the perfect combination of comfort and healthy living. It's filled with tender chicken and a variety of vegetables, all nestled in a flaky, buttery crust.
Place a large pot over medium/high heat. Add 1 teaspoon of butter and let melt.
Add chicken and cook, stirring often, approximately 5 minutes or until chicken is just cooked through.
Using slotted spoon, take chicken out of pot and move to a mixing bowl for later.
In the same pot, add 2 teaspoons of butter still over medium/high heat, and let melt.
Add celery, carrots, and onion and cook, stirring often, approximately 5 minutes, or until the vegetables start to soften, about 5 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium/low. Sprinkle vegetables with flour and cook, stirring, until coated, about 1 minute.
Turn heat to high and stir in broth. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes.
Add peas, cream cheese, thyme, salt, and black pepper and simmer, stirring every once in a while, until mixture is thick and vegetables are just tender, about 8 minutes.
Stir in chicken and any pan juices and cook until heated through.
Transfer to 12 x 8 inch baking dish.
Unroll dough and press the perforations to seal seams.
Lay the dough on top of the baking dish, allowing the edges of the dough to hang over the sides if there is excess.
