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!" :)

Ingredients

  • FILLING FOR 2 (TWO) PIES:
  • 4 cups cooked chicken, cut up
  • 1 can peas
  • 1 can whole kernal corn
  • 1 can sliced carrots (use a sharp knife to cut them up in smaller chunks)
  • 4 - baking potatoes, cubed small
  • 1 teaspoon celery seed
  • - salt & pepper to taste
  • 3-4 cups chicken broth, thickened (or chicken gravy)
  • 4 - pie crusts (i make them with a top & bottom crust)
  • 1 - egg, beaten with water to make an egg wash

How To Make chicken pot pie

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350.
  • Step 2
    Par boil the potatoes in salted water. Drain & add to other filling ingredients. Mix well.
  • Step 3
    Divide all filling ingredients into 2 equal amounts in bowls.
  • Step 4
    Place bottom crust into 2 oven safe bowls or deep dish pie plates.
  • Step 5
    Bake both crusts for 10 minutes. This will help keep the bottom crust from getting too soggy.
  • Step 6
    Remove from oven. Fill crust with the filling ingredients.
  • Step 7
    Pour the thickened broth over the ingredients.
  • Step 8
    Cover pies with the top crust. Brush lightly with the egg wash. Using a fork, poke several holes in the crust.
  • Step 9
    Bake for about 45 minutes, or until crust is golden browned.
