- Heat oven to 400°F. Cut eight 2 1/2-inch circles from puff pastry and place on parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with egg and top each with 1 sprig dill, pressing to adhere. Bake until puffed and golden brown, 10 to 13 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat butter in large saucepan on medium. Add leeks, carrots, celery, and 1/4 teaspoon salt and sauté until beginning to soften, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle in flour and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Slowly stir in broth and bring to a simmer. Simmer until vegetables are tender and soup has thickened, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in peas and chicken and its juices and heat through. Season with 1/4 teaspoon pepper and stir in parsley and dill. Serve with puff pastry rounds.
Freeze leftover soup (without herbs or puff pastry) in an airtight container for up to three months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then warm and top as desired.
