Chicken Pot Pie Family Favorite Recipe

Hey y’all!  Ken and I were getting dinner ready tonight and realized we have never shared one of our favorite recipes, our easy chicken pot pie recipe.  It’s always a big hit in our home and our kids ask for it all them time.  They also really love the leftovers they get to take in their school lunch the next day.  

Chicken Pot Pie Recipe

Ingredients

  • 3-4 cups of shredded boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 1 carton chicken broth
  • 2 packages of refrigerated Pie Crusts (2 pack)
  • 2 bags of frozen mixed vegetables
  • 2 cans cream of chicken soup (can also use cream of celery)
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Begin by boiling boneless skinless chicken breast.  Once the chicken has finished boiling and is cooked through, remove it from the water and allow to cool.  OR You can skip this step and buy a rotisserie chicken. 😉

2.  Next, shred the chicken in to a bowl and set to the side.

3.  Combine the chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, shredded chicken, and frozen vegetables in a pot and allow to warm.

4.  While the filling is heating, line a baking pan with one pie crust.  I prefer to use two separate baking pans for smaller portions and easier storage.  I like to add some pepper in this step too.  It’s not one of the original ingredients but we like the flavor it adds.

5.  Once the filling is warm, fill the pie crust lined baking pans to the top.

This is one recipe we’ve had on our meal plan every month and it really is a great dinner option.  This one does take a little more time to prepare than some of the others I’ve shared but we always end up with leftovers and in our house, that’s a good thing.  I hope you’ll try this recipe with your family and enjoy it as much as we do.
