Prep

Step 1. Heat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Set out a baking dish and keep the pastry chilled while you make the filling.

Cook

Step 2. Melt Butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add Onion, Carrot, and Celery; cook, stirring, until beginning to soften, about 6 minutes.
Step 3. Stir in All-Purpose Flour and Thyme; cook until the flour coats the vegetables and smells lightly toasted, about 1 minute.
Step 4. Gradually stir in Chicken Broth and Milk, then add Salt and Black Pepper. Simmer over medium heat, stirring, until the sauce thickens and the carrots are tender, about 6 minutes.
Step 5. Stir in Turkey Breast and Peas, then transfer to the baking dish. Lay Puff Pastry over the filling, trim any excess, and cut a few slits in the top.
Step 6. Bake until the pastry is puffed and deep golden and the filling bubbles in the center, about 25 minutes.

Finish & serve

Step 7. Let the pie stand until the filling settles, about 5 minutes, then serve.

Good to know

Reheat the leftover turkey filling to 165°F in the center, checking through a pastry slit with a food thermometer.

Leftovers

Refrigerate leftovers promptly and use within 3 to 4 days, counting from when the turkey was originally cooked.
