For the Filling
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup diced onion
- 2 celery ribs, chopped
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 1⁄4 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt

- 1⁄3 cup cream
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 2 cups cooked cubed chicken

directions
- Cook the potatoes in boiling water until tender. Drain thoroughly and return to the pot. Mash the potatoes using a potato masher and add 1/2cup milk and butter making sure that the liquids are absorbed into the potatoes. Add the remaining ¼ cup milk if the potatoes seem dry. Add poultry seasoning salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions, and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 6 minutes. Add the celery, carrots, poultry seasoning salt, and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally 5 minutes. Add the butter; when it’s melted, stir in the flour. Cook 1 to 2 minutes.
- Increase the heat to high and add the chicken stock, and bring to a boil; then reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring, 5 minutes.
- Stir in the cream, chicken, corn and peas. Remove from the heat and add the parsley. Pour the mixture into a medium-size (about 6 cup) baking dish.
- Gently spread the mashed potato over the top.
- The casserole can be made several hours ahead of time up to this point; cover and refrigerated.
- Preheat your oven to 350° and set a rack to the middle position. Bake until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, 30 to 40 minutes.
