This was so easy! I had prepared "Chicken Any Way", and I had decided to freeze it. There were two containers of it. Then when I got closer to supper-time, I decided to use one half of the prepared chicken and gravy to make a pie. There was a package of prepared/refrigerated pie crust and I had frozen peas and fresh carrots. When I suggested chicken pie along with scalloped potatoes, to my husband for supper, he said "sure that sounds good"! Wow, and I thought he would say "whatever, without enthusiasm"!

How To Make chicken pie - my way

Step 1

Remove the pie crust from packaging and leave out for about fifteen minutes. When softer unroll and line a 9" pie plate with one crust.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut the chicken into bite size pieces and place in a bowl.Cook the diced carrots and peas for about four minutes with a little salt. Drain and combine with chicken and gravy and broth. Adjust seasonings to your taste.
Step 3

Pour all into the pie crust, and put the second crust on top. With a crimping motion turn the edge of the top crust over and under the bottom crust,about one inch, and evenly make a standing crust all around.
Step 4

Bake for about 30 minutes, and turn oven down to 350 degrees. Cover the edge all around with a narrow strip of aluminum foil, to keep it from burning. Bake for about 20-25 minutes longer until nicely browned.
