  • Author: ushinzomr

Description

A comforting chicken pot pie filled with tender chicken, vegetables, and a creamy sauce, all encased in a flaky crust.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cooked and diced
  • 1 cup carrots, diced
  • 1 cup peas
  • 1 cup celery, diced
  • 1/3 cup butter
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 3/4 cups chicken broth
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 2 refrigerated pie crusts

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the carrots, celery, and onion powder, and cook for about 5 minutes until vegetables are tender.
  3. Stir in the flour, salt, and pepper, and cook for 1 minute.
  4. Slowly whisk in the chicken broth and milk, cooking until the mixture is thickened and bubbly.
  5. Add the cooked chicken and peas, stirring to combine.
  6. Remove from heat and set aside.
  7. Place one pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan. Pour the chicken mixture into the crust.
  8. Cover with the second pie crust, seal the edges, and cut slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
  10. Let the pot pie cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Feel free to add other vegetables like corn or green beans.
  • For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken stock.
