Drain, mash potatoes, stir in hot milk, grated cheese, yogurt, and half the salt and pepper. In oven proof skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Cook onion, celery and garlic 6 minutes. Sprinkle with flour and stir. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly. Cook several minutes until thickened. Stir in remaining salt and pepper, basil, lemon juice, chicken, carrots, peas and corn. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes or until heated through, stirring occasionally. Spread potatoes on top and bake at 400 ºF (200 C) for 10 minutes. Makes 6 servings. |
