(continued in the next column ↗️)

1 cup fresh or frozen and defrosted corn kernels
1 cup fresh or frozen and defrosted petite peas
2 cups cooked chicken
CHIVE MASHED POTATOES
2 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
5 tablespoons butter (divided use)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1/4 cup heavy cream or milk
Directions
To make chicken filling:
  • In a 4-quart saucepan, melt the butter and sauté onion for 2 minutes until it begins to soften.
  • Add flour and whisk until it bubbles.
  • Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, stirring until sauce is thick and smooth, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add carrots, salt, pepper and sage, stirring until sauce begins to simmer.
  • Add milk, corn, peas and chicken; simmer for another 3 minutes.
  • Pour filling into a 3-quar t casserole.
  • Refrigerate until ready to bake.

To make mashed potato topping:
  • Place potatoes in a 4-quart saucepan with water to cover.
  • Boil for 15 to 20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife.
  • Drain potatoes and return to the hot pan.
  • Shake pan over medium heat to dry the potatoes.
  • Add 4 tablespoons of butter, salt pepper and chives; mash potatoes to desired degree of smoothness.
  • Blend in the cream or milk.
Spread the potato mixture over the chicken filling and dot the top with the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter.
Bake in oven preheated to 375 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes, or until potato topping is golden brown.
