Time 1h10m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup onion, Chopped
1/2 cup flour
1 cup celery, Chopped
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup carrot (Chopped or Sliced)
1 cup potato, Diced
1/2 cup frozen green pea
1 cup half-and-half cream
1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 cups cooked chicken, Chopped
2 frozen pie crusts

Steps:

  • Sauté onion, celery, potatoes and carrot in butter for 10 minutes.
  • Add flour to sautéed mixture, stirring well; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  • Combine broth and half and half, also add ½ cup water; gradually stir into vegetable mixture.
  • Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened and bubbly.
  • Stir in salt and pepper.
  • Add chopped chicken, stirring well.
  • Pour chicken mixture into a greased shallow 2 quart casserole. Top with pastry pie crusts.
  • Cut slits to allow steam to escape.
  • Bake at 400 degrees for 40 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
  • ** I add a little bit more half and half and add some water because otherwise it thickens too much. Don't let it get too thick before you pour it in the container to bake. The first time I made this it was too thick and ended up being a little dry by the time we got to eat it. So when it starts to thicken, go ahead and combine chicken with it and put it into the oven.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your potpie a more complex flavor and texture. Good options include carrots, celery, peas, and corn.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken is tough and dry. Cook it until it is just cooked through, or to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Make sure the sauce is thick enough. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the chicken and vegetables, but not so thick that it is gloppy. If the sauce is too thin, add a little flour or cornstarch.
  • Use a good quality pie crust. A good quality pie crust will make your potpie taste even better. You can use a store-bought pie crust or make your own.
  • Bake the potpie until the crust is golden brown. This will ensure that the crust is cooked through and the filling is hot and bubbly.

Conclusion:

Creamy chicken potpie is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a creamy chicken potpie that will be a hit with your family and friends.
