Ingredients for Chicken Pot Pie
- Rotisserie chicken: 2 cups (shredded)
- Butter: 1 cup
- Onion (chopped): 1/3 cup
- All-purpose flour: 1/3 cup
- Salt: 1/2 tsp
- Pepper: 1/4 tsp
- Chicken Broth: 1 3/4 cups (from a 32 oz carton)
- Frozen mixed vegetables (thawed): 1/2 cup
- Heavy whipping cream: 1/2 cup
- Pie crusts: 2 (store-bought or bakery-fresh)
Instructions:
- Preheat and Prepare: Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Melt and Flavor: In a saucepan, melt the butter. Add minced garlic for extra flavor.
- Vegetables and Flour: Introduce the thawed mixed vegetables to the pan, stirring until soft. Gradually add the flour, allowing it to coat the vegetables evenly.
- Broth and Cream: Pour in the chicken broth, followed by the heavy whipping cream. Stir to combine and create a rich, creamy filling.
- Add Chicken: Mix in the shredded chicken, ensuring it’s fully integrated with the other ingredients. Keep the heat at medium.
- Pie Assembly: Spray a cast iron skillet with seasoning spray. Lay the first pie crust in the skillet, add the filling, and then place the second crust on top. Seal the edges with a fork.
- Bake: Place the skillet in the oven for 30-35 minutes. Watch for the crust to turn golden brown – a sign your pot pie is ready.
- Serve and Enjoy: Remember to use a silicone handle holder when removing the skillet from the oven. Let it cool slightly before serving.
