Chicken Pot Pie is something my grandma and I used to eat a lot when I was younger. My complaint has always been, why hasn’t someone created one without peas? I just cannot do peas, I try them every year and I just do not like them. So what a better opportunity than to create my own. If you are anything like me and dislike peas, you will love this recipe I created.
What Ingredients Do I Need?
- Pie Crust (Homemade or store bought)
- Carrots
- Mushrooms (Can leave out)
- Onions
- Green Beans
- Corn
- Chicken
- Salt & Pepper
- Egg
Here is how to put together this chicken pot pie.
- Dice up your vegetables.
Dice up your carrots, mushrooms and onions. Set aside for now.
- Cook Chicken
Cook your desired chicken, for a later step in this. You can skip this set by using a rotisserie chicken if you would prefer.
- Sauté Vegetables
In a frying pan, with butter, fry all your vegetables. I would suggest throwing down the carrots first for a minute or two to soften. Then toss in the remaining vegetables cooking until tender.
- Mix Everything Together
Add your cans of cream of chicken into the vegetables and stir together. Mix in your desired chicken, dices or shredded.
- Pie Crust
Grease your pie tin and lay the bottom crust down. Fill the crust with your filling and lay the top layer on.
Brush the top of the crust with an beaten egg wash. Make a couple small slits in the crust for room to breath.
Notes:
If there are things in my recipe that you do not like, you are welcome to leave them out. You can also add some things in if you think it needs more.
