Does anyone have a recipe for chicken pot pie,preferably like Marie Callender chicken pot pie. Yum!?!
Answers: The crust has to be flaky. A simple recipe would be nice.
Marie Callender Chicken Pot Pie
Filling
2 cups water
14 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breasts,
cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 carrots, peeled and cubed (about 1 cup)
2 ribs celery, sliced (about 1 cup)
1 medium onion, chopped (about 3/4 cup)
2 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup butter
4 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon flour
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 cup frozen peas
Crust
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup shortening
5 to 7 tablespoons cold water
To make the filling: In 4-quart saucepan combine water, chicken, carrots, celery and onion. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add chicken bouillon, pepper and butter. Dissolve cornstarch and flour into whipping cream and stir into chicken mixture. Simmer 3 minutes stirring frequently until thickened. Add peas and set aside.
To make the crust: Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
Combine flour and salt. Using pastry blender, cut in shortening until particles the size of small peas form. Sprinkle one tablespoon of water at a time over flour mixture and toss with fork to blend. Add enough water to hold the dough together. Form into 2 balls. Roll out bottom crust on floured surface to 1 inch larger than inverted 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Lift dough off floured surface by rolling onto rolling pin and unroll over pie plate. Ease the dough into the plate loosely and press in place. Trim bottom crust even with edge of plate.
To assemble: Pour filling into bottom crust. Roll out top crust, cut slits for steam to escape. Cover filling with top crust and fold top crust under bottom crust. Seal crust and flute edge. Bake in a 400 degree F oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and filling is bubbling. Let stand 15 to 20 minutes before serving.

This is my Mom's recipe. I posted it on RecipeZaar, but it is our own :-) The crust comes out flakey and tender.
Old Fashioned Chicken Pot Pie
Filling
2 1/2-3 lbs chicken, cooked and removed from bone or 3-4 cups cooked chicken or cooked turkey, leftovers
2 cups chicken broth or turkey broth
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of celery soup
1 1/2 cups of sliced frozen carrots
1 1/2 cups frozen sweet peas
Crust
1/2 cup lightly-salted butter
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup self-rising flour
1 cup buttermilk or whole milk (buttermilk recommended)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
2. For the filling: Cook the chicken and remove the meat from bones, or measure out the precooked chicken or turkey.
3. Place the meat, the carrots and the peas in a buttered 9-inch by 13-inch pan.
4. Mix the broth with the soup and bring to a boil.
5. Pour the hot liquid over the meat.
6. For the crust: Mix all ingredients until smooth, pour over the chicken and spread until the crust is about 1 inch from the sides of the pan.
7. Bake the pie in the oven for 35-45 minutes, until crust is nicely browned.
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
4 cups frozen stew veggies (large cut) thawed
1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
Boil or steam the chicken breasts until done. Dice.
Mix together undiluted soup, vegetables, and diced chicken. Pour mixture into pie shell, and cover with the second crust. Crimp the edges, and make slits in the top crust.
Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 45 minutes, or until crust is golden brown.
