Ingredients

  • 1 medium russet potato, peeled and cubed
  • 2 chicken breasts, cubed (about 2 cups)
  • 1 cup sliced carrots
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • ½ cup corn
  • 2 (9-inch) pie crusts, unbaked
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons garlic salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • cup milk
  • 1 egg

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil for 10 minutes, then add chicken, carrots, peas, and corn and boil for 15 minutes more. Remove from the heat, drain the water, and set aside.
  • Place bottom crust in a 9-inch pie plate and bake for 5 minutes.
  • While the crust is baking, cook butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Once butter is melted, stir in flour, garlic salt, and pepper. Slowly whisk in chicken broth and milk and heat until thickened, 5–6 minutes.
  • Remove bottom crust from the oven and add chicken and veggies to the crust. Pour the broth mixture over the chicken and veggies.
  • Cover with the top pie crust, making sure to seal the edges. Cut slits on the top to allow steam to escape.
  • Create an egg wash by whisking egg with a little water. Brushing egg wash on top the pie crust.
  • Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
  • Let rest for 10–15 minutes before cutting and serving.

Notes

To freeze. Wrap chicken pot pie tightly with aluminum foil or plastic wrap and place in a large resealable plastic freezer bag. It will last for up to 4 months. When ready to bake, there is no need to thaw. Simply remove plastic, cover with foil and bake as directed, adding an additional 35–40 minutes to the baking time.
