5 c Canned low-salt chicken

1 3/4 lb Skinless boneless chicken

1/2 c Diced carrot
5 tb Unsalted butter
5 tb All purpose flour
2 1/2 c Milk; (do not use nonfat or

Pie Crust; (see recipe)
1 Egg white; beaten to blend

Bring broth to boil in Dutch oven over medium heat. Add fennel; cook 7
minutes. Add chicken and carrot; simmer until fennel, chicken and carrot
are tender, about 10 minutes. Pour into strainer set over bowl; reserve
broth for another use.
Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour; stir
2 minutes. Gradually add milk and whisk until sauce thickens, about 4
minutes. Add lemon juice, fennel seeds and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add chicken
mixture and ham. Season with salt and pepper. Divide filling among eight 1
1/4-cup souffl?dishes or glass custard cups. Cool completely.
Roll out pie crust on flour surface to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut out 8
rounds, each measuring 1/2 to 1 inch larger in diameter than souffl?BR> dishes, gathering dough and rerolling as necessary. Cut out leaf
decorations from dough scraps, if desired. Lay 1 dough overhang firmly to
adhere to sides and top rim of dish. If using, brush bottom side of cutouts
with water and place on dough; cut slits in dough for steam to escape. (Can
be made 1 day ahead. Cover each with plastic; chill.)
Preheat oven to 375F. Place pies on large baking sheet. Brush crusts with
glaze. Bake until pies heated through and crusts are golden, about
40 minutes.
