Chicken Pot Pie Filling

I enjoy cooking, and have especially loved my Instant Pot and my Airfryer. I'm always looking for, trying, and saving recipes for those!

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed (can be cooked or not)

1 cup (or more) sliced carrots

1 cup frozen peas

½ cup sliced celery

⅓ cup chopped onion

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp pepper

¼ tsp celery seed

¼ tsp poultry seasoning if desired

1 ¾ cups chicken broth

⅓ cup butter

⅓ cup flour

⅔ cup milk

In IP put cubed chicken pieces, carrots, peas, celery, onion, seasonings and chicken broth. Cook at Manual for 6 minutes, QR.

While cooking, in separate pan melt butter, add flour.. When hot whisk in the milk just a few tablespoons at a time, allowing to get hot and incorporate all the milk before adding more. Keep temperature very low.

When IP is done drain the liquid from the pan, saving it. Put the chicken and vegetables back in the IP. Slowly whisk the liquid into the butter/flour/milk mixture, stirring until hot and thick. Once done, add this back into the IP. Stir well, and enjoy.

If desired, can top with dough to make dumplings, or serve over biscuits. Or you can make a pie crust and pour it in and bake it. Very versatile! We like it straight out of the pot in a bowl.
