Ingredients
 

Chicken Pot Pie Filling:

  • 3 cups cooked chicken white and dark meat (I used a whole chicken - see directions below for details)
  • 2 tablespoons butter or ghee or fat of choice
  • 1 onion diced
  • 5 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 pound peeled potatoes roughly chopped
  • 1 pound peeled potatoes diced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup full-fat canned coconut milk
  • 3 carrots chopped
  • 2 celery ribs diced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne optional
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary

Instructions
 

  • Melt the butter in a dutch oven or heavy bottomed pot over medium heat.
  • Add the onions and garlic and saute for 5 minutes, or until soft.
  • Next, add the 1 pound of roughly chopped potatoes and chicken broth to the pot. Bring the broth to a boil then cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork tender.
  • Turn the heat to low.
  • Use a slotted spoon to scoop the potatoes into a blender. Add the coconut milk to the blender and puree. Set aside for now.
  • Add the remaining cup of diced potatoes and the carrots to the pan (the carrots and potatoes should be about the same size).
  • Bring the broth to a boil, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 9-10 minutes, or until the potatoes and carrots are fork tender.
  • Add the celery, peas, spices, cooked chicken and pureed potatoes to the pan and mix well.
  • Raise the heat to medium low and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Pour the desired amount of filling into a casserole dish.
  • Layer the 3-ingredient Paleo Flatbread on top of the casserole dish.
  • Bake at 400F for 20-30 minutes or until the top of the crust is as crisp as you’d like it to be. (You can bake it longer for a crispier crust, just keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn).
