I only gave it four stars because of the phyllo dough. It doesn't tuck under the ramikens. It's like working with tissue paper. I had to use an egg wash to actually stick the dough down around the rim of the bowls. I also used about 5 to 6 layers of the dough cuz I love it. But I got a lot of flour taste from the bottom layers.
It's not fair to give it more or less stars because I changed the gravy. Ellie's recipe was great, and healthy, but I couldn't understand the part about adding flour to chicken broth. Can you say lumps? So I did a roux and - forgive me - used butter and flour. If that's not bad enough, I also added about 1/2 cup of cream cheese to the gravy, which was roux, two cups homemade chicken stock and skim milk.
It was all very tasty!

Made this last night and it was amazing. I took the chicken from a rotisserie chicken which cut down cooking time. I'm definitely going to make this again:D

I adapted this for Thanksgiving leftover turkey breast, but was very good.

I think it's supposed to be 2 TEASPOONS of parsley leaves and 1 TEASPOON of thyme leaves. The tablespoons of both ruined the dish. It was so overdone on the seasoning and we ended up ordering pizza.

These were really good, but so much work that I would probably not make them again. It took at least an hour longer than the stated amount on the recipe. After reading the reviews I added 1/2 cup less of the broth, and it worked out fine. I also added carrots and doubled the phyllo. The phyllo gets soggy as it sits, so don't plan on making any extra for leftovers. They taste kind of like Amy's pot pies. The thyme is pretty strong, so consider adding less if you are not partial to it.

I thought this recipe was pretty good. I used Turkey instead of chicken and no leeks. I actually ended up having enough to fill 6 10oz ramekins. I had a little trouble with the Phyllo dough, but it was my first time working with it. I wasn't able to wrap it under the rim like it said, but it still turned out crisp and flakey. I think the only thing I'll do differently next time is to add some more herbs. It also took me about and hour and 40 minutes to get everything cut and cooked... so have some time on your hands for this one.

I like pot pie and tried this without the chicken and used vegetable broth instead of chicken, because we have a kosher kitchen. We found it a bit bland, and a bit too heavy on the leeks. For all the steps, don't think we'll make this again.

You made it look so Easy!! Haha, I struggled with multitasking, but it DELICIOUS! Unfortunately my grocery store didn't carry the phyllo dough, and my husband insisted we use red potatoes but it was perfect. Had lots of flavor and the mix of veggies was great! If I could fit anything else in it, I'd add corn maybe! Yummy! Leftovers also just keep getting better...

This was a great recipe I loved it. i don't think it was bland at all it was delicious. My husband who is not a fan of chicken loved this pot pie Thanks Ellie. The only thing I would like to know does anyone know how many calories are in this wonderful stuff. Is it the nutrition facts to the right of my page of the recipe.

The only thing I can say is YUM!!! I made this today based on all the excellent reviews, but I did make one switch that I didn't see in the other reviews. I used frozen leftover turkey from Thanksgiving. It was a wonderful way to revive that wonderful taste we all had almost 3 months ago. Also - i didn't use the leeks as i am not a fan.
