Ingredients

Scale

For Dough:

  • 1¾ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • ¾ cup blanched almond flour
  • ⅛ teaspoon fine sea salt

Filling:

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup diced celery
  • ¼ cup diced onions
  • ¼ teaspoon minced fresh oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon minced fresh thyme
  • ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into ¼-inch pieces
  • 4 ounces cream cheese (½ cup), softened
  • ½ cup chicken bone broth, homemade or store-bought

For garnish:

  • Fresh thyme sprigs

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • To make the dough, place the mozzarella and butter in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 1  to 2 minutes, until the cheese is entirely melted.
  • Stir well.
  • Add the egg and combine well using a hand mixer.
  • Add the almond flour and salt and combine well with the mixer.
  • Use your hands and work it like a traditional dough, kneading for about 3 minutes. (Note: If the dough is too sticky, chill it in the refrigerator for an hour or overnight.)
  • While the dough is chilling, make the filling: Melt the butter in a sauté pan over medium heat.
  • Add the celery, onions, herbs, and salt and cook until the veggies are soft, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the chicken and sauté until cooked through, about 4 more minutes.
  • Add the cream cheese and stir until well combined.
  • While stirring, slowly pour in the broth.
  • Divide among four
  • 14-ounce oven-safe bowls or ramekins.
  • Grease a piece of parchment paper.
  • Place one-quarter of the dough on the greased parchment and pat it out with your hands to form a small circle, slightly larger than the diameter of the bowls or ramekins you’re using.
  • Repeat with the remaining dough.
  • Place a circle of dough on top of each filled bowl or ramekin.
  • Seal each pie closed by crimping the dough around the edge with your fingers.
  • Place the bowls on a rimmed baking sheet and place them in the oven.
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the pies are golden brown and the dough is fully cooked.
  • Serve the pies garnished with fresh thyme.
