Classic Chicken Pot Pie### Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cooked and diced)
  • 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
  • 1 cup diced potatoes (pre-cooked)
  • 1/3 cup butter
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour to create a roux and cook for about 1 minute.
  3. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk, ensuring there are no lumps. Keep stirring until the mixture thickens.
  4. Add in the onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  5. Fold in the shredded chicken, frozen peas and carrots, and potatoes. Remove from heat.
  6. Pour the chicken mixture into the pie crust placed in a pie dish.
  7. Cover the filling with another pie crust. Seal the edges and cut slits on the top crust for steam to escape. Brush the top with a beaten egg for a golden finish.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
  9. Allow it to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your hearty Classic Chicken Pot Pie!
