My family LOVED this recipe.
Enjoy!


Filling-
3 tablespoons butter
1 onion (sliced)
1 cup carrot (sliced)
1 cup potatoes (diced)

¼ teaspoon sweet leaf basil

salt and pepper (to taste)
3 tablespoons flour
2 cups chicken broth

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and press half the Filo crust onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9” pie plate.
Step 2: In a large pan melt butter and add celery, onion, carrots, potatoes, mushrooms, and garlic. Stir fry for 5 minutes. Add parsley, red pepper flakes, thyme, sage, salt and pepper to the pan. Mix well. Sprinkle with flour and mix again. Add chicken stock and simmer for 5 minutes or until mixture is thickened.  Add chicken bits to the mixture and mix well.
