My HomeMade Chicken Pot Pie Competition



Homemade Chicken Pot Pie

Ingredients:




  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (I use boneless, skinless chicken breasts roasted for one hour @350 in oven covered)
  • Homemade Gravy or use (1) Campbells chicken/turkey gravy in jar
  • Top & Bottom peice Pie Crust (I purchased pre-made ones in the tins for my freezer cooking, but you can make this homemade too)
  • Frozen Hashbrowns (diced) 1/2 16 oz. bag
  • Frozen Peas & Carrots combination 12 oz. bag
  • Onion, 1/4 cup diced small (optional – we don’t do onions at my house…picky eaters)
  • salt & pepper to taste


Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Take pie crusts out of package. If you have purchased the ones in the tins take one tin out and thaw on counter. Turn the second tin upside down as it thaws. While that it thawing mix together in a large bowl the shredded chicken, hashbrowns, peas & carrots, onion (opt) and gravy. Add salt & pepper to taste. When pie crust has thawed (15 minutes usually) add pot pie ingredients into pie tin with crust. Then take the upside down crust and gently place it on top of the pie carefully. spread it out and pinch the two pie crusts together on the seams. Poke a few holes with a knife or fork on top of pie. Cover and FREEZE if you want this as a freezer meal, or place in oven at 350 degrees and cook for 35-45 minutes until top is golden brown and you can hear the inside is bubbling.
