Ingredients for Our Creamy Delight
Here’s what you’ll need to whip up that mouthwatering chicken pot pie:
- 2 cups of cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup of frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
- 1/3 cup of butter
- 1/3 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 3/4 cups of chicken broth
- 2/3 cup of milk
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1 teaspoon of onion powder
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1 package of refrigerated pie crusts
How to Make It
Alright folks, let’s get down to business. Follow these steps and you’ll have that pot pie ready to go:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once it’s melted, stir in the flour to create a roux, cooking for about 1 minute.
- Add the chicken broth and milk to the roux while constantly stirring. Keep mixing until the mixture thickens up nicely.
- Next, stir in the cooked chicken, mixed vegetables, salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Let it cook for a few more minutes on low heat.
- Roll out one of the pie crusts and fit it into a 9-inch pie pan. Pour your creamy chicken mixture into the crust.
- Top it off with the second pie crust, sealing the edges and cutting a few slits on top to let the steam escape.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Let it cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve!
And there you have it! A delicious, creamy chicken pot pie that will have everyone asking for seconds. Enjoy every bite and share the love!
