Yield: 6 serving(s)
Ingredients: 1 tbsp. butter; 1/2 small yellow onion, chopped; 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced; 1 small carrot, chopped; 2 stalks celery, chopped; 2 c. low-sodium chicken broth; 1 tbsp. fresh thyme leaves; 1 tsp. sweet paprika; 1/2 c. heavy cream; 3 c. rotisserie chicken; 1 c. frozen green peas, thawed (optional); Kosher salt; Freshly ground black pepper; 2 c. shredded mozzarella; 4 oz. cream cheese; 2 large eggs, plus 1 egg beaten with 1 tbsp. water; 2 1/2 c. almond flour; 2 tsp. baking powder

Step 1Preheat oven to 425°. Make filling: In a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter. Add onion, garlic, carrot, and celery and cook, stirring, until softened, about 7 minutes.

Step 2Stir in broth, thyme, and paprika and bring to a boil. Let simmer, 5 minutes, until vegetables are tender. Stir in heavy cream and simmer until thickened, about 2 minutes. Add chicken and peas and toss to warm through and coat with the sauce, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.

Step 3Make crust: In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt together mozzarella and cream cheese. Add eggs and stir to combine, then stir in almond flour, and baking powder. Season with salt.

Step 4Dollop crust mixture over the filling and smooth the top with a spatula. Using a knife, cut an X in the center of the crust, then brush with egg wash.

Step 5Bake until crust is golden, about 25 minutes.
