- 1 Clove Garlic - Minced
- 3 Tbsp All-Purpose Flour
- 1 Cup Chicken Broth

Directions
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Set four 8-ounce oven-safe ramekins on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, and celery and cook for 6–8 minutes, until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Sprinkle in the flour and stir for 1 minute. Gradually stir in the broth, then the milk. Add the thyme, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 3–5 minutes, stirring, until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- Stir in the chicken and frozen peas. Remove from the heat and let the filling cool for about 10 minutes, then divide it among the ramekins, leaving about ½ inch of space at the top.
- Cut four puff pastry rounds slightly larger than the ramekin rims. Brush the rims lightly with beaten egg, lay a round over each ramekin, and gently press around the edges to seal. Brush the tops with egg and cut a small slit in each to let steam escape.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the pastry is puffed and deep golden and the filling is bubbling through the vents. Let the pies rest for 5–10 minutes before serving.
