• Step 1
  NOTE: To make this dish, I use a 9" square x 3" deep Corningware casserole dish. It is the perfect size to make one large pie.
• Step 2
  ALTERNATES: ** You can substitute rotisserie chicken with skin and bones removed and cut into bite size pieces ***NOTE: You can substitute store bought pie crusts found in dairy case; buy two packages (4 shells). This recipe is generous enough to make two pies if you are using prepackaged pie shells.
