Chicken Pot Pies..

Dinner on a cold rainy night...the best thing i can think of is chicken pot pies..wish i was eating them tonight..but chinese take out will do for tonight..but many people asked for my recipe...i kinda just made it up..and put in what i remember from growing up and eating the frozen pot pies that my mom would get (dont get me wrong..i loved them and they were easy....but i love cooking..so frozen wont do!)
RECIPE..i was making this recipe for a bunch of people..so
In BIG skillet, melt butter(1 stick); stir in flour(2/3c) and pepper( dash). Cook about 1 minute, stirring constantly, until smooth and bubbly. Gradually stir in chicken broth
(2~10.5oz cans) and 1.5 cup milk; cook until mixture boils and thickens, stirring constantly. Add chicken(i used one and 1/2 rotisserie chickens..diced up), onion,celery and carrots (diced and sauted in veggie oil or olive oil), peas and corn(frozen and thawed); cook until hot and bubbly. Spoon mixture evenly into ramekins(or i used mini loaf pans) u can either place biscuits on top..i used puff pastry..but i have also used pie crust.....just cover top( u can also place on bottom..either taste good) Place on top (and bottom if u like). Cut slits in tops. brush tops with milk. cook until top is golden brown..20 mins..i just look at it and see how i feel..

they were very tasty! enjoy! and let me know!
