The Filling
Bake the chick'n pieces for 15 minutes at 400°F. Let cool and then dice.
Prepare the Ingredients as described in the ingredients list above.
In a large pot, melt the butter and saute the chopped onions over medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes.
Add the flour, mix until thoroughly combined, and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes.
Add the hot chicken stock to the roux, a little at a time while constantly stirring to mix evenly.
Add the diced Veggies and Seasoning, bring to a slow boil, and simmer over low heat for 3 minutes.
Add the heavy cream, diced vegchicken and minced parsley. Mix well.
Fill the 6 ramekins with the filling.
The Pie Crust and Baking
Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
Let the pie crusts thaw so the are easy to work with.
Separate and bunch the pie crusts into 6 even balls. Use a roller pin to shape it into flat rounds just slightly larger than the ramekin tops.
Place on top of the filled ramekins. Firm in place and press a fork across the edges for aesthetics.
Brush the tops with the beaten egg. Poke some holes with the fork (stab each ramekin crust with a fork for 4 times).
Put the ramekins on a baking pan, making sure they are not touching each other.
Bake for 45 minutes on the middle rack, or until golden brown.
