Ingredients

nonstick cooking spray
113 g unsalted butter
945 ml chicken broth, divided
60 g all-purpose flour
1 can (227 g) carrots, drained
15 g dried onion flakes
1 dash hot pepper sauce
1 tsp ground black pepper
2.5 g dried thyme
1 bay leaf
300 g diced cooked chicken
227 g white potatoes
4 slices Swiss cheese
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, cut into four squares
1 egg, beaten
15 ml water

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Grease 4 small ovenproof bowls with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 2
In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in 475 ml of the chicken broth and gradually whisk in the flour until the mixture is smooth and slightly thick. Add the carrots, onion flakes, hot pepper sauce, black pepper, thyme, and bay leaf. Cook for about 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken and potatoes, and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Step 3
Place a slice of Swiss cheese into the bottom of each prepared bowl. Divide the chicken mixture equally over the cheese in the 4 bowls. Place a puff pastry square over the top of each bowl, pressing lightly around the rim.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix together the beaten egg and water until well combined. Brush the mixture over the top of each pastry. Place the bowls on a baking sheet.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until the pastry is puffed and golden brown, about 25 minutes. Allow the bowls to rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.
