chicken pot pie
Threw together this pot pie recipe from a leftover rotisserie chicken. I had enough to make 2 pot pies! We had one for dinner and I froze the other. My daughter made the pie crust from scratch, but pastry & I don't usually get along, LOL So, you can always use a store bought crust (but homemade, from scratch, is so much better!) My husband loved it so much, he said, "This is what wins contests!" :)

How To Make chicken pot pie
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 350.
-
Step 2Par boil the potatoes in salted water. Drain & add to other filling ingredients. Mix well.
-
Step 3Divide all filling ingredients into 2 equal amounts in bowls.
-
Step 4Place bottom crust into 2 oven safe bowls or deep dish pie plates.
-
Step 5Bake both crusts for 10 minutes. This will help keep the bottom crust from getting too soggy.

-
Step 7Pour the thickened broth over the ingredients.
-
Step 8Cover pies with the top crust. Brush lightly with the egg wash. Using a fork, poke several holes in the crust.
