Ingredients

  • 1 box pie crust
  • 1 whole (4-pound) chicken, cut into parts
  • 5 cups water
  • Salt
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1/2 medium onion, diced
  • 3 stalks celery, diced
  • 2 carrots, sliced
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon freshly chopped thyme leaves
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 tablespoon milk

Directions

Prepare the pie crust according to the package directions. Divide it into 4 equal portions, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Put the chicken breast in a medium pot and cover with 5 cups of water.

Bring to a boil over medium heat and add salt, to taste. (Reserve the legs and thighs for the Round 2 Recipe Chicken Cacciatore.)

Simmer until the chicken is completely cooked through, skimming any fat that rises to the surface, about 20 minutes. Remove chicken, to a cutting board and when cool enough to handle remove the meat and dice into 1/2-inch cubes. Reserve the broth the chicken was cooked in. (Set aside 1/2 cup for Round 2 Recipe Chicken Cacciatore.)

In a medium pot heat the canola oil over medium heat. Add the onions, celery, carrots, salt and pepper, to taste, and cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour, poultry seasoning, and thyme and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Slowly pour in the reserved 4 1/2 cups of chicken broth, whisking to remove any lumps. Add the chicken and peas, bring to a boil, then remove from the heat. (Reserve 2 cups for Round 2 Recipe Chicken Noodle Casserole.)

Divide the remaining mixture between 4 (14-ounce) ramekins. (Alternately, the pot pie can be made in 1 (9-inch) pie pan.)

Roll out the 4 pieces of pie dough to 1/4-inch thick rounds. Brush the edges of the ramekins with milk. Cover each ramekin with a piece of dough and press around the edges to seal. Cut a steam vent in the top of each piece of dough and brush with milk. Arrange on a baking sheet and bake until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, about 40 to 45 minutes.

    Oh WOW. This was sooooo delicious!!!! Such a hearty, stick to your ribs type of meal. If you're looking for comfort food, especially on a rainy day -- this is it!!! I could not believe how simple the whole thing was to make, and it still turned out amazing. The poultry seasoning really did it for me! It enhanced the whole dish perfectly. Two things, I did do differently, was add 1/4 cup of heavy cream into the pot after adding chicken stock and letting that reduce down. I also added corn instead of peas, due to the fact that I'm not a huge fan of peas. Other than that, followed the whole recipe exactly. Turned out amazingly delicious!!! I am never going to buy store bought chicken pot pie again! Thanks Sandra!

    I have to eliminate any extra salt in my recipes, so I was concerned that the 'Chicken Pot Pie' might not have enough flavor when it was done. I simply added the discarded onion, celery and carrot trimmings to the chicken when cooking, and strained the broth when it was done. This gave added flavor to the chicken and sauce. Except for this one change, I followed the recipe completely as Sandra wrote it, I will definitely be making this again. We absolutely loved it. The recipe does take longer to prepare than the stated 10 minutes, but worth the effort!!!
