Chicken And Sweet Potato Pot Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for ramekins
    1 large onion, chopped
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon pepper
    1 lb sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
    2 - 2 1/2 lbs cooked whole chickens
    1/4 cup flour
    1/2 cup white wine
    2 cups low sodium chicken broth
    1 cup frozen peas, thawed
    1 cup flat leaf parsley, chopped
    1 tablespoon fresh tarragon, chopped (optional)
    1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
    1 large egg, beaten
Preparation
    Heat oven to 375\u00b0F Oil four 12 oz ramekins, or use a 9\" pie plate.
    Heat the oil in a large skillet on medium heat. Add the onion, salt and pepper. Cook, covered, stirring occasionally, for 6 minutes. Add the sweet potatoes and cook, covered, stirring occasionally until tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
    Meanwhile, shred chicken discarding bones and skin; set aside.
    Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Gradually stir in the wine and then the broth and bring to a boil.
    Add the chicken, peas, parsley, tarragon, and nutmeg.
    Divide the mixture among the prepared ramekins (about 3/4 C each).
    Using a 4\" round cookie cutter, cut out 4 pieces of puff pastry. Place the pastry on top of the ramekins.
    Place the pot pies on a rimmed baking sheet (line with foil to catch drips). Brush pastry with beaten egg. Bake until puffed and golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
