NO TIME CHICKEN POT PIE



No Time Chicken Pot Pie image

I made this one day when I brought home another rotisserie chicken and just needed to do something different with it. I've also just put the crescent rolls in the oven as per the package directions and eaten the filling separate! All the veggie amounts are approximate - I sometimes increase some or even omit one or 2 if I don't have them on hand...

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon oil
1 large onion, diced
2 carrots, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
2 small parsnips, diced
1 cup button mushroom, sliced
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
3 cups milk (I use 2%)
3 tablespoons chicken bouillon powder
1 tablespoon fresh ground pepper
2 teaspoons seasoning salt
1 -2 tablespoon mustard
2 teaspoons thyme
2 cups cooked chicken, diced
1 cup peas (I use canned)
1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent dinner rolls

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Heat a large saucepan, add oil and saute the onion until translucent. Then add the carrots, celery, parsnips, and mushrooms, cooking until veggies are softened and mushrooms have cooked down.
  • Move the veggie mix to one side and melt butter in the empty area. Whisk in flour then slowly whisk in milk.
  • Add in pepper, seasoning salt, mustard, and thyme - bring to a simmer for a couple minutes, until it starts to thicken.
  • Stir in the chicken and the peas.
  • Spray 9 x 13 pan with cooking spray. Fill with chicken mixture. Open package of crescent rolls and arrange on top. Bake about 15 minutes until crescent rolls are puffed up and golden brown, then serve!

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your pot pie a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, peas, and corn.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken is dry and tough. Cook it until it is just cooked through, then remove it from the heat.
  • Use a good quality pie crust. A homemade pie crust is always best, but you can also use a store-bought pie crust if you're short on time.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot pie. If you put too much filling in the pot pie, it will be difficult to cook evenly. Leave some space at the top of the pot pie so that the filling can bubble up.
  • Bake the pot pie until the crust is golden brown. This will ensure that the crust is cooked through and flaky.

Conclusion:

Chicken pot pie is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a relatively easy dish to make, especially if you use a store-bought pie crust. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious chicken pot pie that your family and friends will love.
