I found the dish to be a little too salty for me. Also I wish there would have been more crust.
TOO HARD!!!

This recipe was a disaster. The pie ended up tasting too creamy and rich. We could hardly eat it. It was also very difficult to follow.

4 CUPS OF HEAVY CREAM!!!!!!

User: Anonymous User Rating:
Now don't get me wrong I love heavy cream but this is excessive! 1 quart of cream is 4 cups thats alot of cream. I would rather save all the calories for dessert. Try Emerils recipe from the episode new england classics. It has way more flavor, just us the puff pastry instead of making pie crust, that is a waste of time.
Really good but....

Every recipe of Paula Deen's, I have cooked, has been really good. However, I would change a couple of things about this chicken pot pie. I had never heard of chicken base, but was able to find it at the grocery store. The next time I cook this, instead of the chicken base, I am going to use chicken broth. The recipe calls for butter and flour, which gives the dish its thickness. Adding the chicken base is too much. Another thing I would do is instead of the puff pastry, I would get the chilled pie crust.
WARNING - TOO SALTY!

A quarter cup of chicken base?! That makes for a pot pie so salty that it is INEDIBLE. If I were to make this again, I would use a TEASPOON of chicken base, not the quarter cup that it calls for. I would use 3 cups of chicken, 2 cups of carrots, and 2 cups of peas, as I thought it needed more "solids" in the pie. I also think a quart of heavy cream is a bit excessive - maybe 2 cups of half and half and 2 cups of milk. The recipe has potential, but prepared as written, it was inedible.
Outstanding chicken pot pie!!

This is the best chicken pot pie I've had!!! Clearly a family favorite. The only modification I made was the 1/4 cup chicken base. Obviously from reading the recipe its way too much salt! Talk about sodium overdose! I used chicken bouillon instead. Very very easy to make. I used to think homemade chicken pot pie was difficult, it's a misconception. This is super simple!

I love this recipe...I changed it up a little though. I love Paula Deen's recipes, but sometimes they are a little rich for me. I substitute 2% milk for the heavy cream and I use a double pie crust and bake it in a 4 quart round casserole dish (my husband doesn't like puff pastry.) I bake it according to a double crust pie recipe with filling. Everyone who has had this has raved over it.
So Very Good!!!!!

I found this to be a great recipe. I have fixed it twice. The first time was great. The second time was Out-standing. The reason? You Ask. Because I added some fresh thyme and parsley before putting the crust on. I believe I would eat anything that Paula makes.
in perfect form, but too salty

User: dana from hoover, AL User Rating:
This is very easy to make and the texture of the filling has a nice consistency--not too thin or too thick. The 1/4 cup chicken base needs to be cut in half as it adds way too much salt flavor. I used milk to 1/2 and 1/2, 3:1. I used frozen veggie mix (peas, carrots, green beans, limas) and threw in some chopped parsley at the end. My husband loved it.

Like many others I found this to be too rich, even though I used half and half instead of heavy cream. I also found that the chicken base oversalted the soup and had to add extra milk to balance it out. Aside from that the recipe was good and my only client, my husband, liked it.
Really good, with a couple of tweaks...

User: Vickie from Bothell, WA User Rating:
I also had bad luck with the puff pastry. It's pretty expensive, and I don't have the right size bowls to do individual servings. Also, after sitting a bit, the lattices sort of fell, and got really greasy. I decided it would work better for me to just use a regular pie crust and put it all in a pie pan. Yes, the filling is rich, and salty, but I think the chicken base is an important element; I'd probably try reducing the salt by using unsalted butter. The only real objection I have to the flavor of the filling is the raw garlic taste. Next time I make this, I'm going to put the garlic in at the same time as the butter so it can saute a little.

This was indeed good, however, using a quart of heavy cream puts this recipe off the charts nutritionally. There are other recipes from food network that are just as good, if not better, that are far more healthy than this one.

You would not believe how easy this recipe is. I love it because it gives you an alternative to the same old chicken recipes. I used a frozen vegetable mix that had asperagus, corn, and carrots. I also used a frozen vegetable soup starter that had peas, potatos and corn. You know, half of one bag and half of the other. It turned out great. I just love you Paula Dean!!

Chicken pot pie was one of my favorites when I was young, and this just like I remember. I made this with leftover turkey after Thanksgiving. My husband, who loves food but eats somewhat small portions, cleaned his plate twice!!! Then he said, that's the kind of meal I like. Big time comfort food.

User: Beth from Lakewood , CA User Rating:
That is what my boyfriend asked. From the start I adjusted the recipe. I couldnt find base and just figured it was stock so I used 1/4 cup stock instead. I used half the cream that was suggested and added more veggies, just like everyone else did. I did get my boyfriend to eat lima beans (they blended well with the peas). Next time I will use more veggies, including broccoli and maybe some celery. I dont know if it was my oven or what, but I had to put it all in the oven for a LOT of extra time because the pastrie didn't cook through the first time. Maybe because it was frozen? Anyway you can tell I am not a really great chef but this turned out OK. Partly my fault, but judging by the other reviews, maybe the recipe needed tweeking before I got my hands on it. :)

I am only 17 so my experience with cooking is very minimum but this recipe was really easy for me to do! I made minor alterations by adding a bottom crust, and I just used a box of frozen mixed vegetables for my veggies. The only thing is that is is really thick so next time I will use the advice posted and use half and half.

This recipe was really good, the dough was a bit difficult to handle however the taste was still great! I also used fat free 1/2 & 1/2 and skim milk equal parts and the sauce was rich and delicious, also I cut the chicken base to 1/4 C. just from reading other responses, I did not find it to be too salty. I added a lot more vegetables, it was very filling. I will be adding this to my favorites.

This was really good. After reading the reviews I deviated a little by using half and half rather than cream and it was super rich (I'm not saying this is a bad thing..) but I can't imagine what it would be like with heavy cream. It would have been too much. I bought a rotisserie chicken at the deli and picked that for my meat - I roasted the veggies (added in some diced potatoes as it's just supposed to be that way I think.) It is rather salty, but I found that throwing in a spoonful of sugar or so helped even that out. We thought it was great. Only a once and a while thing though as it's so unhealthy!
Way too salty!

User: Lynn from Falcon Heights, MN User Rating:
Don't get me wrong -- it's a great recipe but next time, I'll either cut the chicken base in half or look for a low sodium. The first day, the pot pie was great (I did use just half/half) but the second day the salty flavor was overwhelming. It also needs a crust on the bottom. Add more veggies, too.

This is the best pot pie recipe ever. The flavor of the filling is so good the excess usually gets eaten with a spoon before I even get to freeze it. I've used turkey more than chicken, and it is equally as delectible! If you don't like the crust idea you could use a straight pie crust, that would be lovely. However you'd really be surprised how far the puff pastry goes. You think you will not have enough to enjoy it with the whole pie, but it really does stand up to it. Suggestions, #1 Don't use a deep dish pie plate, if you go with the puff pastry (the filling will overwhelm the pastry) #2 By all means substitute some of the heavy cream with 2% milk, you truly will not miss it (or the calories). The flavor of the chicken base & veggies makes up for the loss of the cream.

Made this recipe but used half cream and half lowfat milk. Did not use chicken base, but broke up two bouillon cubes into the cream mixture when heating. When it thickened, it was TOO thick, so I had to use a little more milk to get a good consistency. Used carrots, potatoes, and green beans for veggies and I also made them in individual 4 inch ramekins. It was SO good! My husband says that I definitely must keep this recipe. I will make it agiai and again!

Luckily I read the reviews before trying to make this pot pie. I love Paula, but hey, let's face it, everything she makes is sooo rich, I'd weigh 400 lbs if I ate like that! Here's what I suggest to make this a little less likely to clog your arteries, and a little less rich. I used a little less than 1/2 a cup of flour, about half of the 1/4 cup of chicken base (if it's not enough, it's really easy to add a little more until it's to your liking). Instead of 1 quart of heavy cream, I did a 1 quart combo of half a can of cream of mushroom soup, one half cup of half and half, and the rest full of milk. Also, I seasoned 3 breasts of chicken with a little italian seasoning and garlic powder, and when the chicken was almost done, I added the onions (as some reviews said the onions weren't thoroughly cooked otherwise). Finally, instead of 1 cup peas and 1 cup carrots, I used 2 cups of peas, a cup and a half of carrots and a cup of canned corn. Mine turned out wonderfully, hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!

This has to be the BEST potpie in the history of pot pies. It's rich and decadent with the tender chicken and the veggies, and the puff pastry goes WONDERFULLY with the filling. It's crunchy texture and it's buttery taste compliments the filling well. I changed up the veggies a bit and used carrots, mushrooms, and broccoli instead of the suggested peas. Too bad I didn't have nutmeg on hand or I bet it would have been even better!!!

Great recipe, I use it to make a full size pie. There is enough filling for two pies. I substitute a qt. of whole milk instead of using cream and it is plenty thick and rich enough. You might want to cut back on the base because it can get too salty with 1/4 cup. The worst part of this recipe is that I want to make it too often. Store bought pot pies don't even come close.

I will use fat free half and half and skim milk instead of the heavy cream. When I made this I sauteed the onions and garlic and added some celery and potatoes. The filling was also be good used as leftovers on toast. Another great recipe, thanks so much PAULA!!!!!
VERY GOOD

This recipe makes two large pies & easy to freeze one. I used regular refrigeratd pie dough,instead of puff pastry and added a little hot sauce, for a bit of a bite. Turned out great, family and friends loved it.

the whole meal tasted like cream - no flavor. not enough chicken. kind of a hassle to make. sat in my stomach like a brick - the few bites i did eat. the puff pastry was impossible to break through with a fork - it was just one huge slab. wayyyyyy too much cream. the 'leftovers' sat for 10 minutes and when i came back to look at them, it looked like plaster of paris. would not feed to my own enemy. you would figure that paula deen would make a decent pot pie, being from the south. this is UNcomfort food at its worst!
Sorry Paula!

I did a pint of cream insted of a quart and did 2 1/14 cp chicken stock. This helped lighten it up a little and it was still delicious. Make it easier by pouring it over a biscuit instead of making a pie.
very good!

Just be sure not to use to much chicken base or it will be WAY to salty.
Use reduced sodium chicken base if possible

It was a little on the salty side, fortunately this was easily corrected by using a reduced sodium chicken base.
Too much cream

User: Anonymous User Rating:
1 quart of heavy cream is too much compared to similar recipes. I used half cream and half milk and still it was overwhelmingly creamy. When onions and garlic are added right to the cream as stated in the recipe they don't get a chance to cook thoroughly, so when you bite into the pot pie you bite a piece of raw onion, yuck. It seems like maybe using 2/3 of the liquid would be best. In my opinion the chicken and vegetables should be the star of the dish, not the cream.
WOW!!!

I have made this several times and cannot describe how awesome it is!! I add about a cup of chardonay and it adds to the richness of the the flavors. Also, rather than making individual servings I put the pot pie into a casserole dish and place the puff pastry on the diagonal. It makes for a beautiful presentation.

I made a few modifications (to make it a bit healthier): 1) I used skim milk instead of heavy cream - and it worked great!! 2) I used a frozen veggie mixture - peas, carrots, plus some other and doubled the amount. 3) per others' suggestions, I reduced the amount of chicken base to 1 or 2 tablespoons - I could see it being really salty with a quarter of a cup. I will definitely be making this many times!

This is so yummy and makes such a cozy presentation. If your family is feeling neglected by your busy schedule, they will thank you for this. It's really very easy, too. The chicken base is a necessity! It gives the roux rich flavor. I cut the base down to only 2 tbsp. and it was perfect. I also used half n half and it was still very rich. I used a pie crust on the bottom and the puff pastry lattice on top since my girls love the crust best and added diced, cooked potatoes. I cooked it in one deep casserole. The best chicken pot pie I've had.
