Combine first 3 ingredients in ungreased 3 quart (3 L) casserole.

Cook next 3 ingredients in boiling salted water in medium saucepan until vegetables are tender. Drain. Add to chicken mixture. Stir.

Heat next 3 ingredients in same saucepan. Add a little water, if needed, to thin gravy. Pour over chicken mixture, lifting with a fork in several places to allow gravy to flow through.

Roll out pastry about 1/2 inch (12 mm) larger than top of casserole. Place on chicken mixture, pressing edge of pastry up sides of casserole. Cut 2 or 3 small slits in pastry to allow steam to escape. Bake, uncovered, in 400°F (205°C) oven for about 30 minutes until pastry is golden. Serves 6.

Tip: If a recipe calls for leftover gravy and there isn’t a drop in sight, you can use store-bought canned gravy. Or, if the dish uses chicken, you can substitute the gravy with a can of cream of chicken soup or mushroom soup and add 3/4 cup (175 mL) water.
