New recipe for chicken Pot Pie

In order to try to maintain a healthy diet I want to try new recipes. Because I am allergic to so many things at this time some things in the recipes must be substituted  and may change the texture a bit. but that doesn't matter. It is different! I have not tried this yet, but it should work. I am trying to find substitutes that would do well in the recipes, and would not take away from the textures the original foods would offer.

From Betty Crocker:


 

2
tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
1 1/4
lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size strips(maybe substitute more kidney beans, less chicken)
1
medium red onion, chopped (about 1 1/4 cups)
2
small zucchini, cut in half lengthwise, then cut crosswise into slices (about 2 1/3 cups)
2
cloves garlic, finely chopped
2
teaspoons chili powder
1 1/2
teaspoons dried oregano leaves
1/2
teaspoon salt
1
can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, undrained
1/2
cup plain yogurt ( I can't have yogurt, so maybe tapioca starch)
2
tablespoons all-purpose flour (garbanzo flour)
1
box Pillsbury® refrigerated pie crusts, softened as directed on box (millet flour based dough)



  • 1Heat oven to 400°F. In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink in center. Remove chicken from skillet.
  • 2Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in skillet. Add onion and zucchini; cook and stir about 6 minutes or until zucchini is crisp-tender. Return chicken to skillet (discard chicken juices). Stir in garlic, chili powder, oregano and salt. Cook and stir 2 minutes. Stir in tomatoes; cook until thoroughly heated. Remove from heat.
  • 3In small bowl, beat yogurt and flour with wire whisk until blended; stir into chicken mixture. Spoon into ungreased 9-inch glass pie plate.
  • 4Unroll pie crust over hot chicken mixture. Fold excess crust under and press to form thick crust edge; flute. Cut slits in several places in crust. Place pie plate on cookie sheet with sides.
  • 5Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until crust is golden brown (sauce may bubble slightly over crust). Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
