Easy Chicken Pot Pie
Truth be told- I don’t make my own pie crust! I know judge me all you want, but it saves me so much time. There are plenty of reasons to make your own, and sure you can argue they taste so much better, but I would argue they really don’t taste that different. They both are buttery, flakey, delicious-ness that taste amazing once cooked. That’s my opinion, so I go with store bought. 🙂 The prep work is very easy, but the pie does take 30- 40 minutes to bake. So this recipe takes more than 30 minutes. Even with the cook time, this recipe is a delicious, easy, and fun way to spice up that crockpot chicken.

Ingredients for Easy Chicken Pot Pie: 2 pie crusts- deep dish! Important, cause we got a lot of filling! 2 tbsp butter 1/2 onion chopped 10.8 oz mixed veggies 1/2 cup milk 9 oz crockpot chicken 1/2 cup chicken broth – I used the broth from the crockpot 1 tbsp flour 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp pepper 1/2 tsp onion powder 1/2 tsp garlic powder How to Cook Chicken Pot Pie: Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Heat a large skillet to medium high heat. Add the butter, onions, and mixed veggies. Cook for 8-10 minutes. Add chicken, broth, milk, flour, and seasonings. Stir to combined, then turn the heat to low simmer for 7-9 minutes. Place the first pie crust onto a cookie sheet. Add the filling then cover with the second pie crust. Remove the tin baking dish. Then cut 3-5 slits in the pie crust (that’s on top) so the filling can ventilate. Bake at 425 degrees for 30-40 minutes. If your oven cooks faster, check the pie around 30 minutes. You want a beautiful lightly brown color on top.
