How To Make my chicken pot pie
-
Step 1Cook chicken tenders in chicken broth. Cool and cut into small pieces. Set aside.
-
Step 2Boil potatoes and diced carrots until firm, but tender. You can boil potatoes in chunks or dice up so they cook faster. (I cook potato chunks and carrots together, so they get done about the same time.) Set aside to cool.
-
Step 3Preheat Oven to 375*. Bring out pastry or puff pastry to warm on counter while you proceed with following steps.
-
Step 4Gently saute' celery and onion in 2 Tbs. butter. until tender. Add cooked potatoes and carrots, spices, frozen peas. Set aside.
-
Step 5In separate pan, make roux by using remaining 3 Tbs. butter and 3 Tbs. flour. Add 3/4 cup to 1 cup milk.
-
Step 6Add chicken bouillon (I use Better Than Bouillon - Costco). Stir together until roux is slightly thickened.
-
Step 7Add chicken pieces. Add your cooked potatoes and carrot mixture.
-
Step 8Place in greased casserole dish. Cover with pastry or puff pastry. Cut top to vent. You can brush with a little milk if desired.
-
Step 9Bake on lower rack in oven @ 375*F. until filling is bubbling and crust is puffed and golden brown. 30-35 minutes
