EASY CHICKEN POT PIE-
This hearty chicken pot pie recipe is so easy to make and tastes way better than any store-bought pot pie! The combination of flavors from the flakey homemade pie crust with the hearty and creamy chicken and veggie filling is wonderful.
INGREDIENTS FOR CHICKEN POT PIE-
I love how versatile this pot pie is and you can adjust the filling to what you have on hand!
Pie dough– You can use either homemade pie crust or store bought pie crust.Meat– You can use canned cooked shredded chicken, homemade cooked shredded chicken, or any leftover chicken. Rotisserie chicken always works great. If you want to use turkey you can also use leftover turkey! Veggies– We use frozen corn, carrots, and peas. You can use any frozen or fresh veggies you like. If you have leftover roasted veggies that works great too!Hearty sauce– The creamy and hearty sauce is what brings this dish together!
HOW TO MAKE CHICKEN POT PIE-
This is our version of the traditional pot pie recipe, it’s so easy to make and I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Prepare pie crust– Prepare one portion of our homemade pie crust or use store-bought crust.Prepare filling– Saute the onions then add garlic, whisk in flour. Pour in the liquids, seasonings, and cook until the sauce thickens.Add veggies & chicken– Once thickened, stir in the vegetables and shredded chicken, set the filling aside to cool completely. (Tip: If you don’t allow the filling to cool completely, the bottom of the pie crust will be mushy and not crispy.)Roll out bottom pie– Roll out and fit one of the pie crusts in a pie dish.Fill pie– Fill with the cooled chicken and vegetable filling.Add top to pie dough– Roll out the second pie crust, top filling and pinch edges together. Create slates in the pie crust.Bake pie– Bake the pot pie, allow it to slightly cook so the filling sets and isn’t runny!
