Cheaters Chicken Pot Pie (I invented this recipe)
By a ready made pie shell and put the bottom piece into a large size pie tin. Pour a can ready made chicken gravy in it. Cut up your leftover chicken into small pieces and spread it around on top of the gravy. Drain a can of diced potatoes and spread over the chicken. Add about half a small bag of frozen mixed veggies (your choice which ones sound good when you are shopping). Pour another can of chicken gravy on top. Put the top pie shell on. Fork the edges and cut a few small slits in it. Back a 400 for about 30 - 40 minutes till the shell is golden brown and the gravy is bubbly.
My family loves chicken pot pie, and I feel it is soo easy but I also indulge in premade things.
I improvise in things if i have no time to do from scratch.
>> Pie crust(your recipe or store bought)
>>potatoes, (fresh or canned, fresh cut into cubes and pre cook till slightly tender)
>>veggies of choice,( carrots, peas, broccoli, cauliflower, onions..Fresh or canned or frozen by mixed veggie blend I prefer frozen over canned and I love to add pearl onions but i usually dice an onion myslef but the pearl onions are soo cute and tasty.)
>>gravy (make form scratch with thickened broth, or buy packet or canned, or even use a cream of soup)
>>chicken(use whole or favorite cut up or even a rotissary one form deli)
If everythign is fresh, then start with cooking your chicken
I add my onions to flavor it and a bay leaf. If your using fresh veggies stick in broth as ur deboning chicken and cook putting carrots infirst the potaotes till slightly tender when things are cooked thicken by adding a four and water mix or add gravy or soup mix to keep liquidy but not "Soupy". Put into pie add top and bake 350 for about half hour.
Wella if everything is canned or frozen mix as above. I use my left over turkey or chicken dinner fixings too, I throw my mashed potatoes in their sometimes evenmy stuffimg.It is like a toutier pie and still tasty.
An easy chicken pot pie that is really good is to take left over baked chicken and dice it up(you will want at least a cup or two) place in a casserole dish with a can of mixed vegetables a can of cream of chicken soup about half a can of milk mix ingredients well and place in a 400 degree oven uncovered until it becomes bubbly. Then take a can of large buttermilk flaky biscuits and place on top. Put back in the oven until biscuits are brown. take out and serve. My family just loves this. You can also do the same thing with left over beef stew or a large can of dinty moore stew except you add no other ingredients except the biscuits when the stew becomes bubbly. now you have vegetable beef pot pie. Easy, simple and delicious.
