How to Make Chicken Pot Pie Allrecipes Magazine It's easier than you think to make a crowd-pleasing homemade chicken pot pie. You'll find the step-by step recipe below, but here's a brief overview of what you can expect: Make the Filling Boil the cubed chicken with the carrots, peas, and celery for about 15 minutes. Drain and set aside. Cook the onions in butter until they're translucent, then stir in the flour and seasonings. Add the chicken broth and milk and simmer until the filling is thick. Fill and Bake the Pie Place the chicken-vegetable mixture in an unbaked pie crust. Pour the chicken broth mixture over it. Cover with the top crust, seal the edges, and cut slits in the top to allow the steam to escape. Bake until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. How to Store Chicken Pot Pie Allow the pie to cool completely before storage. Wrap the cooled pie tightly in aluminum foil and refrigerate for three to five days. Reheat in the oven or in short bursts in the microwave. Allrecipes Community Tips and Praise "We love this recipe just as it is written," says crs701. "We have had it several times and it is always so good — never dry. I am going to make it tonight and add a cup of diced potatoes, just because we are a potato family. I always use deep dish pie crusts. Simply delicious!" "Really good," according to TD. "I used a rotisserie chicken and just added it after the veggies were done. Added some house seasoning but other than that, I followed the recipe exactly. Excellent!! My family loved this!" "I have made this so many times! It's a family favorite," raves another Allrecipes member. "I always end up putting my own flair on it with extra veggies and other seasonings. I also make 4 pies at a time so I spend more time chopping veggies but it's totally worth it." Cook Mode (Keep screen awake) Ingredients 1x 2x 4x Oops! Something went wrong.
