Instruction
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and lightly grease a 9x13" baking dish.
- In a medium skillet, melt butter and add oil, carrots, potatoes, onion and celery. Cook, stirring often, over medium-high heat, until slightly softened, about 10 minutes.
- Stir in garlic, salt, parsley, thyme and pepper and cook for 1 minute.
- Add chicken broth and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium, cover and simmer until vegetables are tender.
- Whisk together cream and flour. Stir into filling with chicken and peas. Simmer over medium heat until gravy has thickened to your liking and vegetables are tender. This is a great time to taste test and adjust seasonings. Pour into prepared baking dish and prepare the topping.
